THE INTERNET IN AMERICA

A recent report in The Hindu says that one in five Americans say they've never used the web and a third say they don't even use the Web occasionally, according to a new survey conducted by the non-profit Pew Internet & American Life Project.

About 70% of white Americans use the Internet, compared to about 57% of African-Americans, according to the survey.
