A Portrait of Early Internet Adopters: Why People First Went Online –and Why They Stayed, by Amy Tracy Wells, Research Fellow, Pew Internet & American Life Project, February 20, 2008

  • “In our survey, we asked these long time internet users why they first went online. The majority of respondents noted “to communicate with colleagues.” When asked what their favorite application was at the time they first went online, most said email. This is not much different from what we found in a survey in February-March 2007: 56% of respondents reported sending email yesterday — the day before they were contacted in the survey.”
