May be you can see the point here.
Shirazi, this is a comprehensive look at the increase in online activities. You make some very good points and back them up by sound research. I like the way you included the education component.
Your final paragraph sums up everything succinctly:
"The usual lines that once used to mark the boundaries between radio, television and print media are fading fast. Use of internet as a source of news dissemination is likely to rise in coming years. Users that have integrated internet in their lives are ready to get their news from internet. A stacks of the newspapers may still be sitting by my bed, may be."
It's great to have more than one perspective on this topic. Thank you for this.
