Summary

Smartphones are protagonists not only for the European leadership. The Spaniards used more than any other of our devices for watching videos, commenting on social networks and, generally, connect to the Internet.

The information is still beating the battle to social networks in their use of 26.25 million common Spanish Internet. In fact extends its advantage. If in 2013 you pulled almost six points ahead of Facebook, Twitter and company, now the gap has widened to 10%. But both social networks and instant messaging have had two golden years: the report emphasizes that Twitter has grown in this period WhatsApp 600% and 200%.

Opinion

I also think Spanish people are the most active users in Internet, anywhere you go you will see people chatting with their phones or looking something in Internet. Also people who travel a lot in public transport has changed their paper books by e-books or smartphones because they are easy to carry than big books.
