July 26th, 2008

In today’s market, users have become engrossed by superfluous conveniences, rather than practical uses of technology, According to a recent survey, most UK consumers are more drawn to the features of their service, rather than ordinary telephone communication. Of these desirable features, consumers display the utmost demand for web usage, as a near majority will access the web on a daily basis. According to the statistics found, close to half of UK consumers surf the web through mobile devices, usually on a daily basis. Even more remarkable, it seems that many users would rather email than call their contacts, possibly due to the convenience which that option entails. Additionally, many users are engrossed in social networks, which have recently grown quite compatible with mobile broadband. Facebook, a social network popular among post-secondary students, is one of the most accessed web pages. Over 45 percent of mobile consumers will consistently access websites on their mobile devices, usually on a daily basis. An overwhelming statistic, it was also discovered that 62 percent of users check their emails daily, all through access of mobile broadband. Of these users, the majority of activity stemmed from users in the “young adult” age group. Dually, this serves to display the remarkable potential which mobile broadband can attain, in the markets of future generations.
