  • More than 75% of mobile subscribers in Japan are connected media users (identified as those who used their browser, accessed applications or downloaded content), far exceeding their U.S. and European counterparts. Japan also saw nearly 10% of its mobile audience make a purchase with their mobile wallet in December 2010.
  • More than a third (36%) of mobile Americans and 29%  of Europeans browsed the mobile Web in December, with access through an application reaching 34% of Americans and 28% of Europeans.

Only 5% of youth reported that they were exposed only to political views they agreed with online. More damning, perhaps - 34% said they didn't encounter any political perspectives online at all.
