EQO study: Global Instant Messaging Market Share
Posted by Mickaël Rémond on September 02, 2008The mobile instant messaging developer EQO gathered data on the number of connections per instant messaging network through their client. The result has been summarized in a global map of instant messaging networks usage in the world.
The figures are not complete and they only compare relative usages of people using the EQO mobile client. However, it gives a good relative comparison of the instant messaging networks use.
Please, note that Jabber and Gtalk can actually be counted as a single XMPP instant messaging network. In Switzerland and South Africa for example, the XMPP network is close to be the leading instant messaging network.
