To be honest I don't have the exact number and not dare to give one.
But if I may provide you with Indonesia's IT condition, we actually have
a quite good programmers - many of them working in Singapore and
Malaysia.. brain drains - but we greatly lack of a good IT
infrastructure (hosting & networking ). That's why we have a very
expensive internet subscription here.
Nevertheless, you can still see a development of copycat portals of some
famous site. And they are mostly from SME sectors.
For examples, take a look at http://www.lintasberita.com (tehnorati or
digg clone), http://www.kliksaya.com (adserving like adbrite),
(content provider for mobile), etc. All of
those sites - already proven business model - as you know will need a
scalable infrastructure once they getting very popular. This will leave
choices of are they going to provide their own infrastructure or to
outsource to some cloud services. And I bet that they will go to
services like S3, EC2, or Google App Engine sooner or later.
Since I don't dare to give you exact number, but I'm sure that this
condition is happening globally in third world - and I'll include China
for this :P
Those are my thoughts, but of course I hope for a more robust and
systematic market survey if you are serious for this kind of market :)
