Following on from their work on this cloud computing survey a few months ago, Interxion have carried out some more research into how Britain uses the internet compared to the rest of Europe.  They have published the results in the form of an infographic here which visualises the results nicely.

Some of the key interesting points are that despite British consumers leading the way in terms of buying online, British businesses are lagging behind the rest of Europe in terms of selling their services online.

Another surprising statistic is the growth of British broadband which has made big strides forward in terms of the overall speed of connections.  It has been a target for the UK government to move towards faster internet for everyone and private companies such as Virgin Media are putting big resources into speeding up their network.
