China becomes world's largest Internet population
"BEIJING (Reuters) - China has surpassed the United States to become the world's largest Internet-using population, reaching 221 million by the end of February, state media said on Thursday."
It's still just raw numbers larger and not in terms of penetration to the household, but . . . it is enough to change the web as we know it. I think wathcing the Olympics in Beijing this summer will tell us a lot about the direction the Internet and Web are moving in.
There, see, I just justified watching the 2008 Summer Olympics on TV as research!
