Title: International iPad Release Leads to Higher Web Usage Share Post by: HCK on June 01, 2010, 07:00:07 pm International iPad Release Leads to Higher Web Usage Share
Since the international debut of the iPad late last week, folks outside of America's borders have been cruising the interwebz with a vengeance. According to NetMarketShare--a company we can't thank enough for keeping track of internet traffic trends so that we don't have to--the iPad's release on May 28th has led to a spike in web traffic.Whoa.While we know that two million of Cupertino's tablets have flown off of store shelves in under two months, it's astounding to think that internet useage could be so dramatically affected by the device's entry into the market place, given the fact that most individuals who own an iPad should be no stranger to the internet as they more than likely own a home computer as well.What's your take on it? Is the spike in web traffic due to iPad owners fawning over their new toy. Is this a paradigm shift in how we consume content from the internet? Is the iPad the game changer it was first touted as being? http://www.maclife.com/article/news/international_ipad_release_leads_higher_web_usage_share |
