This is an image of the internet users worldwide in 2002. It’s very obvious that the United States, China, and Japan are among the highest internet users. Whether they are "gaming" or actually using it for more useful services such as e-mail or other types of communication, other countries aren't as privileged or just don’t have the luxury that we do.
The internet helps globalization in many ways. A very good specific example is when people place orders over the internet. Phone calls have become much less important and e-mail is the new thing to do. That is why the United States is a major trade partner with Japan and China. The internet has a major role in communication and the connectedness of many countries both big and small.
