Mobile Web Use Explodes

As is always the case, the highest growth rates for any product or service come when growth starts at a low base. And that seems to be the case for mobile Web usage, which over the last year has grown faster among users 65 years old, or older.

Over the last year, users 65 or older adopted mobile Web behaviors at a 67 percent rate.

The other trend of note is rapid growth at the other end of the demographic scale. Users between 13 and 17 increased their mobile Web usage by 45 percent. That means teens are buying smart phones, or having smart phones bought for them.
