    New Study:Internet fanatics aren't geeks

    Wed 14 January, 2004 06:03

    LONDON (Reuters) - The typical Internet user -- far from being a geek -- shuns television and actively socialises with friends, a study on surfing habits says.

    The findings of the first World Internet Project report present an image of the average Netizen that contrasts with the stereotype of the loner "geek" who spends hours of his free time on the Internet and rarely engages with the real world.

          yeah - sending 100 mails a day ... and ahnging out on gfy - that is actively socialicing with ones freinds



          who else intereacts with 100ds of people
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
