New technologies are one of the key industries in the XXIst century. In a world world, our scholars interacted in a few activities in the net, particularly in Social Media where its expansion is really impressive. But it is not a regular average.

A December 2011 study developed by Eurostat, a statistical bureau from the EU Union, pointed to the fact that almost one of each 4 EU Community citizens (27 members) never had used web. These data, that seem dreadful, need a bit complicated analysis.

2006 - 2011 An enormous advance

From these years folks who hadn't web access at home decreased from 42% of the people till 24%. Here we can see a good step to digitalization, but if we seek a bit more we can see that 45% of Bulgarian household net access rates but 94% of Dutch ones.

Leaders in Europe

In 2011 there were serious info by nations. Holland (95%), Luxemburg and Sweden (91%), and Denmark (90%) are at the very top of the share. In the other hand Bulgaria (45%), Romania (47%) and Greece (50%) are at the bottom of the list.

USA vs Europe: USA wins

National Cable and Telecommunication Association announced that Wire High Speed Web Availability to U.S. Households by June, 2011 was 93%, that is, 124,8 million folks, like we can see in theNCTA analysis of SNL Kagan and Census Bureau estimates. The contrast with Europe is significant. Sweden (86%), Denmark (94%), Holland and UK (83%) and Finland (81%) registered the highest share of broadband connections in 2011, and each one of them were a great distance away from the US.

We're not talking about Romania (31%), Bulgaria (40%) and Greece (45%) that had the lowest averages, but the highest scores.

What about the use?

It is also major. Eurostat afirms that in 2011, the highest proportions of folks that had never utilised the net were noted in Romania (54% of people aged 16-74), Bulgaria (46%), Greece (45%), Cyprus and Portugal (both 41%). Programms like "formacion subvencionada" in Spain (free courses for workers) had discreet success.

Is Europe losing the race against USA? With this data, that's more than a serious possibility.
