Gary's news service at teledyn.com has an article on Internet Saturation.

Let me ask you....If you were on a rock in the middle of the Atlantic,
|
|
mostly in the dark for half the year, wouldn't *you* like a bit of
|
|
internet distraction? They've already done the obvious and fiber-ringed
|
|
the island.

Latest guestimate stats from Ireland's NUA show a flattening Internet
|
|
population growth. It seems there's two kinds of people, those who will go
|
|
online with the status quo, and those who won't: Canada levels out at 53%,
|
|
the USA at 59% (since 2000!), Denmark flatlines at 60%, Norway at 54%,
|
|
Sweden at 64%, and the UK at 55% ... only Iceland continues unfettered
|
|
beyond 60%. Could this be evidence of a usability barrier? If so, it's a
|
|
clear signal that there's as much fortune to be gained from a
|
|
substantially new Internet interface than all that has been gained so far.
