May 17th was “El Día de Internet,” or “Internet Day” in Latin America and several bloggers offered homages to the World Wide Web. From El Salvador, Hunnapuh asks [ES] [1] “but really, what is the significance of the internet?” A commenter at BlogsPeru remarks [2] that just around the corner is “International Webloggers Day.” (No sign yet when Martian bloggers will be commemorated.) And from Mexico City, Isopixel [3], ALT1040 [4], and Chilanga Banda [5] all have a review of events. The day coincided with Mexico's 20 year anniversary of being connected to the web. Ciberamérica celebrates [ES] [6] Chile's advancements in e-commerce and e-government.
