Europe 2008: 125 titles
The number of titles of free dailies newspapers in Europe has risen from 2 in 1995 to 125 in 2008. Thanks to GoogleDocs we can show that in this interactive graph (a so-called heat map gadget).
Spain is leading the pack when it comes to the number of free dailies: 23 different titles in 2008. In 2005 Spain was also leading.
In 2000 Germany (!) was the country with the highest number of free dailies in Europe: afternoon paper 15 Uhr Aktuell in Munich, Berlin and Hamburg. In Cologne three different titles were published. 15 Uhr, however, closed down the same year while the three other titles closed down in 2001.
