Editor's Note
Welcome again to the Internet World Stats
Newsletter (IWS News for short). This is our first edition
of the year 2005. We plan to publish every month a new issue of
the newsletter, only for the opt-in subscriber to IWS News!
This time of the year everybody involved with Internet usage
statistics is very busy updating figures for publishing the 2004
year end stats. We expect to collect and receive new data during
the next six weeks period of time in order to publish a general
update towards the end of February.
In the meantime we are updating the 2005 world population
estimates and including the physical size (area) of the 237
countries listed in our website.
Other news of interest for Internet Marketing Research about IWS
are published below.

The World Population for
2005
The revised population estimate for 2005 is
6,412,084,319 population in the world. This is the estimate of
World Gazetteer that we will use for our statistical tables in the
Internet World Stats website.
As we expressed in the editorial note, new Internet usage data
will be available towards the end of February. For the moment, we
can tell you that China has updated data and the number of
subscribers is now 94,000,000 in mainland China, a seven million
increase from the previous figure.
This new estimate brings up to 819 million our total world
Internet users figure. For 2005 we expect to reach one billion
Internet users (1,000,000,000) by the end of this year.

More Country Data
Included
An additional parameter will be included as of February 2005 in
the information box for each country. It is the physical size or
area of each country or territory. With this information the
visitor can get a very quick picture of the individual market
characteristics and calibrate its relative potential.
The per capita GNI is also being updated. We hope these
additions will make the website more useful to our visitors. You
can see this new information at the Asia Page which is
ready.
