As you can see Spain is about to lose its first place in the fonero movement.  A month ago Spain was beating USA by a 4 to 1 margin.  On one side I am sorry to see that our home country losing global leadership.  On the other I am impressed that before we appear in US shops, in the US web sites of our partners, before we have a signed deals with any US telcos, that there\u00b4s still so much interest for Fon in the United States and all coming out of our own web site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fon.com\">www.fon.com<\/a>.  UK is also pretty impressive as we don\u00b4t yet have marketing presence in the UK.  Another surprising element to me is that I thought that the Bill model was going to be particularly successful in the US and the UK while the Linus modality was going to be more prevalent in Continental Europe but we have not even started the Bill model yet and these are the results.  I guess there are a lot of Linuses in America, they just don\u00b4t seem to win elections \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nTop 30 countries:<\/p>\n<p>1 &#8211; Spain &#8211; 5584 registered users<\/p>\n<p>2 &#8211; United States &#8211; 5555 registered users<\/p>\n<p>3 &#8211; France &#8211; 2027 registered users<\/p>\n<p>4 &#8211; Italy &#8211; 932 registered users<\/p>\n<p>5 &#8211; United Kingdom &#8211; 929 registered users<\/p>\n<p>6 &#8211; Germany &#8211; 847 registered users<\/p>\n<p>7 &#8211; Netherlands &#8211; 694 registered users<\/p>\n<p>8 &#8211; Argentina &#8211; 431 registered users<\/p>\n<p>9 &#8211; Sweden &#8211; 366 registered users<\/p>\n<p>10 &#8211; Canada &#8211; 348 registered users<\/p>\n<p>11 &#8211; Switzerland &#8211; 241 registered users<\/p>\n<p>12 &#8211; Belgium &#8211; 241 registered users<\/p>\n<p>13 &#8211; Portugal &#8211; 199 registered users<\/p>\n<p>14 &#8211; Chile &#8211; 180 registered users<\/p>\n<p>15 &#8211; Mexico &#8211; 173 registered users<\/p>\n<p>16 &#8211; Brazil &#8211; 142 registered users<\/p>\n<p>17 &#8211; Ireland &#8211; 142 registered users<\/p>\n<p>18 &#8211; Denmark &#8211; 116 registered users<\/p>\n<p>19 &#8211; Israel &#8211; 112 registered users<\/p>\n<p>20 &#8211; Norway &#8211; 110 registered users<\/p>\n<p>21 &#8211; Austria &#8211; 104 registered users<\/p>\n<p>22 &#8211; Australia &#8211; 98 registered users<\/p>\n<p>23 &#8211; Finland &#8211; 84 registered users<\/p>\n<p>24 &#8211; China &#8211; 83 registered users<\/p>\n<p>25 &#8211; Poland &#8211; 73 registered users<\/p>\n<p>26 &#8211; India &#8211; 69 registered users<\/p>\n<p>27 &#8211; Colombia &#8211; 57 registered users<\/p>\n<p>28 &#8211; Estonia &#8211; 54 registered users<\/p>\n<p>29 &#8211; Hungary &#8211; 48 registered users<\/p>\n<p>30 &#8211; Venezuela &#8211; 42 registered users<\/p>\n<div id=\"mainphotoarea\"><\/div><div class=\"theme-buttons\"><div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/english.martinvarsavsky.net\/?p=268\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"box_count\" data-width=\"71\" data-show-faces=\"false\" data-font=\"arial\" data-locale=\"en_US\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I got the latest report on fonero figures.
