"Few technologies have spread as quickly, or become so widely used, as computers and the Internet.  These information technologies are rapidly becoming common fixtures of modern social and economic life, opening opportunities and new avenues for many Americans.  A Nation Online: How Americans Are Expanding Their Use of the Internet shows the rapidly growing use of new information technologies across all demographic groups and geographic regions.  Not only are many more Americans using the Internet and computers at home, they are also using them at work, school, and other locations for an expanding variety of purposes.  In the last few years, Americans' use of the Internet and computers has grown substantially."
