Re: Internet Study
Don't be an idiot. 1) Our tax dollars are not a "who" - they're a "what," but that doesn't matter since they're being spent, not doing the spending. 2) The Pew Group is a non-profit organization that conducts surveys in a lot of areas of daily life. Uncle Sam's not footing the bill.
While the survey seems a little misguided, I for one am surprised by the data. I thought a lot more than 45% of internet users would rely on the Net for important decisions. So the survey may be instructive even if it only serves to tear down misconceptions.

Re: Re: Internet Study
Non-profit groups still get paid by someone. My wife works for a non-profit and she doesn't work for free; and neither does her director.

Funny - if they hadn't already figured all that out, how solid can their polls possibly be..
Oh by the way - for the guy who came up with the idea for this study/poll... Your village called, their idiot is missing..
lol

Re: Obvious on paper
As far as research is concerned, I'll take the good with the bad, for the sake of not relying on my own biased opinion about how the world is. I have no particular fondness for this type of study or its methodology, but it's better than saying "I know everything, I won't do any research"

Re: Non-Profit
Well, I liked your comment until you threw that in. WTF does that have to do with Bush? I don't like the guy either but he has nothing to do with idiotic studies. No president does, period.

Re: Re: Non-Profit
Yesterday I was at a retail store, looking at a selection of media, and of course it is difficult to pick an item based on a title or a short description, so....I called my wife on her "in" cell phone (free airtime, of course), gave her titles, and she looked up reviews on the internet. I got 4 quality used items for less than $20, 3 of them with no case or anything (only the disc). Would not have purchased them without the reviews. Technology and the internet....how wonderful!!!!

I have no affiliation or particular fondness for the Pew studies, I just wanted to vent about your inane commentary (with some inane comments of my own). Thanks. :)

Imagine..people using the internet to research schools! What a concept. If only we had some PC remote access software that could travel back in time and let users get a peek at the things that await them...They might be shocked to see how truly little has changed. I mean, beyond bandwidth, what has changed in the last 3 years on the web? Nada, if you ask me..
