Huge leap for China’s Online Population as it Rises by 51 Million in 2012!

So…The Chinese famous internet censorship has not stopped a 10 percent increase in internet users in 2012, with a reported 51 million new internet users, bringing the total number to 564 million. 

With the social media block still in force, so no Facebook, Google + and Twitter available, the whopping 564 million is still more than the entire population of Russia and the U.S. combined!

The increase is largely due to a surge in mobile web surfing. The number of Chinese web surfers who access the internet from mobile phones, tablets and other wireless devices, rose 18.1 percent in 2012 to 420 million.

Happy New Year...Matt
