Unfortunately I do not have insights on social networking for the countries you have specified. I think its better to let those countries grow in terms of internet usage before more research is done on it. Hi BarCode,

Thanks for the comment!

What about the remaining countries of Southeast Asia, e.g. Cambodia, Laos, Bangladesh - do you have any insights about situation with online social networking there? ...As for Burma, it probably makes no sense to ask about it, right? Nicholas,

I happened to reach here unawares searching facebook. This research is awsome. And tell you what, it seems frankly not so good for us koreans to prefer cyworld. I can't help but point out this: The uses for which we do it have changed to showing off how many friends someone has, from just managing the connections well. Hello.

I guess if we can draw anything away from this piece of excellent research, is that people who are Google users, are searching for Facebook more than other social networks. It's great topline stuff that addresses the interests or initial trends on the Internet. haha, Nic has already established that the research is not 100% accurate. mainly because of the factor that Google is not the only search engine that people use.

So how highly correlated is search with usage? Interesting comparisons.
