I found it interesting that Pew found that those who feel they have more control over their lives are more likely to be wired than those who don't feel they have control. It must be a money issue then, because it would seem that the "out of control" people would get more use out of the net than anyone else since the computer and the net are usually marketed as time savers and managers. These people must never have heard that you can do your banking, grocery shopping, buy tickets for any type of show you might want to see, use it as a yellow pages, library, mail system, etc. It just seems to me that these might be solutions to some peoples' hectic lives.
