The internet has become a reality in our country. Specially these last 3 years, with popularization of internet use thanks to free ISP. Even if nowadays free ISP seem lack their breath, their merit was to popularize the access to the internet to a larger part of the population. Public services (See Administration, on this purpose) made an enormous effort in the way of informatization. From the Secretaria da Receita Federal to the Ministério da Previdência Social, a lot of administrative tasks are made by the internet, begining with federal taxes.

With this progress, several brazilian SE have appeared. From these, Cadê? (bought by Yahoo) is one of the oldest and most accessed ones.

Below, some of brazilian major SE that we have choosen:
