Number of Kids with Internet Access Will Continue to Explode

Published: 7 December 1999 y., Tuesday
Children of all ages are hopping on to the Internet in droves, marking a trend that sees no signs of abating any time soon.

It is no longer satisfactory to simply plan years down the line when these Internet savvy children will both enter the work force and increase their buying power. This demographic is fast becoming a force - a force with Internet needs and wants that may not be quite the same as those of the traditional Internet user.
