AUSTRALIA'S digital economy grew significantly in 2011/12 with online shopping, social networking sites and a near doubling of smart phone ownership helping drive the boom.
Online shopping activities grew 27 per cent in the 12 months to July 12, according to a new report by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).
There are now 11.36 million Facebook users in Australia, 9.67 million YouTube users and, in the 12 months to July 2012, 12.27 million people accessed online news sites.
It's unclear if those social network and news figures have increased from the previous reporting period because ACMA has changed the way it calculates the data.
Smart phone ownership almost doubled in the 12 months to July 2012, with 49 per cent of Australians now possessing one, up from 25 per cent.
Joseph Di Gregorio, author of ACMA's report - Australia's progress in the digital economy: participation, trust and confidence - expects the digital economy to continue growing.
"Participation is actually broadening across all age groups," he told AAP.
"It's also becoming more intensive because people are downloading more and doing more things."
Mr Di Gregorio said Australians are increasingly mixing and matching how they access the internet, often using traditional computers at work or home and tablets and mobile devices while on the move.
