[krazy_olie]

What sort of stats do you want?

[nev_payne]

Errr googles small print is a start:

Searching 8,168,684,336 web pages

You could look at the uses of the internet - other than gmaing and...nice material . Try drawing a conclusion where theres information on the internet to suit everyone - you just have to look hard enough?

I'd quite like to know how much information there is stored on the WWW, how many people there are online roughly in the UK, stuff like that.

On the information front, I tried downloading http://*.* and it filled my 240Gig RAID array... so it's a bit more than that...

(I know it's an old joke, but it's still a good 'un!)

It depends what your looking for, Google will/should help you out on even quite specific things.
If not, just ask here

if you need to know broadband availability, average net usage by age etc, then the office of national statistics is a good place to start... http://www.statistics.gov.uk/
