On Fridays we always can notice a lower number of users online. Usually concurrent users online go down by about 4.5% compared to Thursdays. And it goes even lower on Saturday and Sunday. Weekend begins on Friday for some (Muslim) countries and for a lot of other countries it starts on Saturday. Many Skypers leave their computers to do other things on the weekend.

But Friday, September 7, 2007, the number of concurrent users online went down by 8.2 % compared to Thursday. Why?

It was Independence Day in Brazil, and my “Samba, Futebol and Carnaval” friends prefer to be on the beaches. Brazil has quite a lot of Skype users!

Could I conclude (from the numbers above) that 3.7 % of Skype Users are Brazilians?

Jean's Skype Numerology blog is quantifiabley12.4% better than the average blog.
