MediaPost, 3/23/11

According to Deloitte’s fifth edition “State of the Media Democracy” survey, 71% of Americans still rate watching TV on any device among their favorite media activities. In addition, 86% of Americans stated that TV advertising still has the most impact on their buying decisions.

According to January 2011 research conducted by YouGov on behalf of mobile solutions provider Antenna Software, 20% of US mobile phone users use the mobile internet at least daily, with usage most frequent among those under 45. Men were 7 percentage points more likely to use the mobile internet each day than women.

Mobile display advertising is poised to increase fourfold over the next five years, according to a new forecast from ABI Research. The ABI study comes on the heels of a new Pew Research survey showing that mobile Internet use is climbing steeply among U.S. adults.
