And it is changing fast:
* China is about to overtake the US in the total number of broadband connections (now 60 million to 56 million), and there are now about 300m people worldwide on fast connections. (And a lot of countries, of course, being left behind.)
* The Economist is putting ALL of its content free online from this week. (And I got an email addressing me as “a noted online commentator on environmental issues” suggesting I join a debate on air travel, which shows they are really working the internet, “viral”, marketing.)
* And you mightn’t have to turn your head sideways and squint a bit in an attempt to identify the letters in Captcha security – you can look at fluffy animals instead. (Since computers can’t distinguish between pictures of cats and dogs….)
