families online

A fascinating report from the UK's Ofcom indicates the extent to which ICT is impacting on everyday life and, in particular, people's leisure time, in the UK. The BBC news website has a short summary of the main points. It is interesting to see the extent to which specific 'groups' such as women and retired people are major users of online systems. After reading it, I feel that I should go home to my children and tell them to stop reading those books and playing around outside and sit down in front of a games console or watch TV if they want to be 'normal'!!
