Today is International Internet Day. Supposedly there are over 20 million internet users in Mexico…this number has increased dramatically (more than doubled) in the last 3 years. With just over 100 million people living in Mexico that means that 1 in 5 Mexicans are connected in this way. I guess some of these 20 million users may be the same person with multiple usernames. Anyway…there are alot of Mexicans connected to the internet…and the number is growing.
Its not what most people envision when they think of Mexico. Burros, tortillas, sombreros, tacos, tequila, mariachi music, siesta…internet. I don’t think so.
I’m reminded that Mexico has changed and continues to be on the fast track for change. What will the “new” Mexico be? The lists are long of both the good and the bad that comes from this and other sources of change. But its still happening…
What does it mean?
I’m not even sure sometimes what the questions are…much less the answers.
