How many people are on the Internet?
It seems like everyone uses the Internet, but I'm sure not everyone uses or has a presence on the Internet. I'm curious if anyone knows the numbers on this question: How much of the world uses the Internet? I know some people who don't even have a cell phone and only use the Internet, sparsely, because other family members use it. And I'm sure there are parts of the world that don't use it, and a certain number of people who maybe never heard of it.
In April 2012 it was 2.27 billion, double what it was 5 years ago.

Awesome, thank you! That's a lot of people, no doubt about that.
Even more amazingly in June 2011 there were 346,004,403 public websites! Bear in mind that there is also an underground network censored by the major search engines whose population is larger than ALL the results that show in a Google search!
