Cada vez mais presente no dia a dia dos brasileiros, os aparelhos celulares são utilizados por 98,1% dos internautas com mais de 10 anos como ferramenta para acessar a internet. O dado, divulgado nesta quarta-feira (29) faz parte da Pnad (Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios Contínua) 2018, do IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística).

Na passagem de 2017 para 2018, o percentual de brasileiros com hábito de acessar a internet pela televisão saltou de 16,3% para 23,1%. No caso das pessoas que utilizaram microcomputadores, o volume de acessos caiu de 56,6% para 50,7% e, entre quem usou tablet, de 14,3% para 12%.

De acordo com o estudo, 37 milhões (20,7%) ainda não tinham telefone móvel celular para uso pessoal em 2018. Dentre os motivos alegados para não ter um aparelho próprio, se destacam as alegações de que o produto é caro (28%), a falta de interesse (24,2%), o desconhecimento de como utilizar o aparelho (19,8%) e a partilha do aparelho com outra pessoa (16,6%).

O levantamento mostra ainda que a parcela que utilizou a conexão discada para entrar na internet já era insignificante em 2016 (0,9%) e continuou em queda em 2017 (0,6%) e passou a representar apenas 0,3% da população em 2018.

Por outro lado, o percentual de pessoas com mais de 10 anos que usaram a banda larga fixa para acessar a Internet passou de 82,9% para 84,2%, acima do volume de brasileiros que usaram a banda larga móvel, que cresceu de 78,3% para 80,4%. O percentual de pessoas que utilizaram os dois tipos de conexão subiu de 61,5% para 64,8%.

O estudo aponta que a principal finalidade do acesso à internet continua sendo enviar ou receber mensagens de texto, voz ou imagens por aplicativos diferentes de e-mail. A prática era comum entre 95,7% dos brasileiros em 2018. Houve ainda um salto no volume de usuários da rede com a finalidade de assistir a vídeos, inclusive programas, séries e filmes.

Duke Kahanamoku reflects on surfing, Olympics, and old Hawaii in 1966 interview

Duke Kahanamoku is the most influential surfer of all time and is often hailed as the father of modern surfing. There is nearly no one questioning these titles. Recently, Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Hawaii unveiled a never-before-seen interview with the legendary surfer and Olympic swimmer. In the 1966 episode of Pau Hana Years, a seminal Hawaii television program that aired on KHET-TV (now PBS Hawaii) for 16 years, running from 1966 until 1982, Bob Barker chats with Duke Kahanamoku, then 76. The conversation drifts from royal ancestry to Olympic lanes, from Hollywood sets to a surfboard shaped by hand, tracing the outline of a life that helped define modern surfing and Hawaii's public image in the 20th century. And if you know little about the man who dreamed of getting surfing into the Olympic Games, this is a precious piece of history. A name with history, worn casually The interview starts with Kahanamoku explaining that "Duke" is not a title but his giv...

King Haakon VIII of Norway and his lifelong love of surfing

When Haakon VIII became King of Norway on August 28, 2026, the world learned more about the man behind the crown. Former Crown Prince Haakon is a sailor, skier, outdoor enthusiast, and, perhaps most surprisingly for a European monarch, a committed surfer. Nevertheless, he's not the first. Charles III , King of England, has surfed before, as have previous British royals . But let's focus on the newly crowned Norwegian king who has already spent years chasing waves. Haakon surfed in California while studying at the University of California, Berkeley, and later returned to the water in Norway with his family. The Nordic royal helped bring the European Surfing Championships (Eurosurf) to Norway and watched his daughter compete in the sport. Then, in a 2023 interview with Norwegian broadcaster NRK, he revealed how serious his surfing ambitions might once have been. Are you curious already? Let's see how surfing conquered Haakon VIII.

The hydrodynamics of surfboard fins

Have you ever wondered why a surfboard fin looks like that? It is a single or a set of fixed blades or keels located under a board, near the tail, often no bigger than a hand. Yet that small surface is where much of the surfboard's behavior takes place. Speed, hold, looseness, and the feeling of control all trace back to how water moves around fins. The physics of surfboard fins falls under hydrodynamics, the study of how fluids behave in motion. So, according to science, they feature a shape designed to turn flowing water into several forces. Let's take a look at what's at stake when fins and water interact. Lift and the feeling of control One of the key variables in hydrodynamic terms involving surfboard fins is lift. When a surfer leans into a turn, the board tilts and the fins meet the water at an angle. The angle is enough to create a pressure difference between the two sides of the fin. Water speeds up on one side and slows on the other. The result is a sidewa...
