E-mail:

During 2011, there was 3.1 billion e-mail accounts. Microsoft Outlook was the most popular customer with a 27% market share while  Hotmail was the most popular service with 360 million users.

Last year also marked the fortieth anniversary of the first email ever sent. The number of global Web sites climbed to 555 million in December, while 300 million new ones were added last year.

Domains:

The number of registered domains reached 220 million during the third quarter of last year. .com domain names proved to be the most common with a figure of 95.5 million

By the end of 2011, Facebook had more than 800 million users, of which 200 million joined last year.

The number of Twitter accounts increased to 225 million while 100 million active users were during the last year.

Lady Gaga ended up last year as the most popular person on Twitter and is currently followed by more than 18.1 million people while #Egypt was the most used hashtag on Twitter over the past year. In total, 2.4 billion social media accounts flooded cyberspace over the past year.

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

By Administrator
I wrote an article on how to save internet traffic on an Android device and I suggested the Onavo Extend and Opera Max apps because they were the most popular back then. Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

By Administrator
IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
