From Technology News:

China is now the nation with the second largest number of Internet users — with 20 million new users going online last year — and is coming close to the U.S. in terms of total broadband users too, according to a new research report.

The total number of Chinese Internet users reached almost 120 million last year, according to a report from the research and consulting firm eTForecasts, based in Arlington Heights, Ill., near Chicago.

The top Internet nation, measured by total number of users, remains the U.S., with 197.8 million, followed by China, Japan, India, Germany, the UK and South Korea, the study said.
