>Two million Norwegians have access to the Internet through work, school or
>from home, according to the November figures from Norwegian Gallup. This
>is an increase of 20% since November of last year. More than 700,000 homes
>in Norway have Internet access. The percentage of women using the net is
>on the increase, currently 51% of women have access as compared to 58% for
>men.
>
>The Gallup study shows that 800,000 Norwegians use the net daily while
>1.6 million surf the net at least once a month.
>
>Norwegian Gallup states that one reason for the increase in Internet use
>is an increase in the number of offers for "free" access without monthly
>fees.
