New Scientist| Internet users more chic than geek
Far from being friendless "nerds", internet users lead more sociable lives than non-surfers, according to new research in the UK.
A survey of 2500 randomly selected Britons revealed that internet users are more likely to belong to a community group, voluntary organisation or to go to church regularly. They also tend to be better paid and more educated than non-users.
I knew it! The chic shall inherit the earth ;-)
