This Internet thing might catch on . . .

Here's the snip from a Globe & Mail story, Calling and clicking like never before. I needn't say more.

The amount of time Internet-using Canadians spend on-line has surged 46 per cent in the past three years to 12.7 hours a week, compared with an average of 11 hours spent listening to the radio and 14.3 hours spent in front of the TV, according to an Ipsos Reid survey.

Among 18- to 34-year-olds, the Internet has become the most favoured medium, with the average on-line individual spending 14.7 hours a week connected, compared with 11.7 hours listening to radio, 11.6 hours watching TV and just 2.5 hours reading newspapers.
