A new study by the IBM Institute for Business Value has found the rate of growth of most forms of digital content services, especially social networks and online video, has more than doubled from a year ago, MediaPost reports. An online survey conducted among 2,800 people in six countries found that 60% of respondents used social networking. More than three-quarters of respondents had also watched an online video, up 27% from the year before.
