Greg Costikyan has a post up on an IDC report that claims that more people play games online than shop online in Asia-Pacific countries. From the report (which I can't seem to find online):A survey of 3,600 Internet users across China, Hong Kong, India, Korea, Malaysia and Singapore found that over the past year, the number of online gamers has eclipsed the number of online shoppers in each country. In China, 43 percent of those online play games, compared to only 16 percent who said they shop. "It is a remarkable milestone to have the number of online gamers surpassing online buyers in several countries within one year," said IDC analyst Chin Jun Fwu. Online gaming is, of course, yet another reason that Robert Samuelson doesn't get it.
