For the first time in history, the internet has surpassed TV in Croatia as the main source of information.

A survey conducted by the Ipsos agency for local daily 24sata found that 61 percent of Croatians consider the internet their main source of information, while TV was named first by only 29 percent.

Over 45 percent of those polled spend more than four hours browsing per day, while only 10 percent watch more than four hours of TV daily. When purchasing goods and services, 47 percent of internet users are influenced by online advertisements compared to 20.3 percent who are influenced by ads on TV.
