Where in the World is Mobile Web Usage Highest. Note that the share in Asia and Africa is higher than that of North America and Europe. People in Asia and Africa went straight to mobile internet without ever experiencing desktop internet.
In Indonesia, the telco operators do a good job in creating demand to get online. They realize that people don’t want “the internet.” They want internet services — chatting and socializing with friends, get news updates, etc.
