The Little Data Book on Information
and Communication Technology 2011
Since the late 1990s access to
information and communication technologies has seen
tremendous growth, driven primarily by the wireless
technologies and liberalization of telecommunications
markets. Mobile communications have evolved from simple
voice and text services to diversified innovative
applications and mobile broadband internet. The number of
mobile cellular subscriptions reached approximately 4.7
billion globally, including people in remote and rural
areas. The number of Internet users has risen constantly and
now tops 1.8 billion people, with the number of broadband
connections more than 470 million in 2009. The little data
book on information and communication technology 2011 charts
the progress of this revolution for 213 countries around the
world. It provides comparable statistics on the sector for
2000 and 2009 across a range of indicators, enabling readers
to readily compare countries. This book includes indicators
covering the economic and social context, the structure of
the information and communication technology sector, sector
efficiency and capacity, and sector performance related to
access, usage, quality, affordability, trade, and applications.
