14Part 2: Content Preferences
By examining aggregate numbers, we are able to paint a picture of the types of sites and services that win on the mobile Web. Tracking the type of content across the top 100 sites visited by all Opera Mini users, we find:
Social networking is popular worldwide and is the leading source of Web traffic for mobile devices – Almost 40% of traffic worldwide is to social networks.
Successful sites on the Web find users on mobile phones, further underscoring the emergence of One Web.
Consumers desire a rich Web experience regardless of the device they use to access the Web. WAP continues to diminish as more-capable Web browsers are able to display full Web content on mobile phones.
Nearly a quarter of all traffic is headed to content portals or search engines.

India favors social networking, with nearly half (48.9%) of all traffic going to social networks.
