- More evidence that the web is ready to go mainstream (and is a major
- opportunity for AT), comes from a 1/8/96 report on CNN Financial News.
- They site a study of over 1500 women on the web. 47% say they have been
- on the web for less than a year.
- Ms. Red Burns who runs the interactive telecomunications program at
- N.Y.U. believes that the web is still a male dominated and female
- unfriendly, but is becomeing less so, because of the ease of use of
- netbrowsers such as netscape.
- When otherwise net uninterested women start getting involved in the
- web, that is a good sign that the web is becomeing a mainstream happening.
