The internet is a top choice as a media outlet, TV second, and all others are far behind. Internet usage has permeated all demographics, with roughly 75% of americans using the internet. Furthermore, broadband connections have surged the last few years, with almost 70% of Americans projected to have broadband access by 2005.
A significant amount of the information that people seek on a daily basis is generated on the local level; movie schedules, road and weather conditions, entertainment events, employment opportunities, housing, and school programs.
Much of this information is already on the Web. Consumers are rapidly shifting their focus for acquiring information from traditional media, like yellow pages, newspapers and TV, to the Web.
