A new Harris/Interactive poll (reported here on CNet) suggests 80 per cent of Americans are online and are spending an average of 13 hours weekly surfing, excluding email.
The data suggests 184 million Americans are online. Their online use is up from most previous years, but off slightly from the October 2008 level preceding the U.S. election.
Some 14 per cent of users are online more than 24 hours weekly. The most active age group online: 30-39 years old, at 18 hours weekly.
And other new data indicates the time spent online with newspaper sites dipped in November year-over-year, hardly surprising considering the presidential election was a year earlier.
