> 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.
