Aside from China and India, Indonesia is looking to be the next big source of internet users in Asia. With only 10% internet penetration (25M users), there's still much room for growth from its 238 million population {via IWS}. Google Trends shows us some relevant data that show strong adaptation in Indonesia's internet population. Indonesia is the Capital of Friendster, peaking at around 2 million unique visitors a day (the Philippines came in 2nd at 1 Million uniques followed by Malaysia at around 700k.). Indonesia came in at #10 for eBay.com traffic (the only other Asian country along with India at #7), and also at #5 with Amazon.com Yahoo is also popular in Indonesia, peaking at about 4 million uniques on weekdays and at #4 worldwide, after the US, India and China.
