INTERNET USE ON THE RISE

 

The percentage of Greek adolescents, aged 12-15, with regular daily or even once-a-week use of a computer totaled 88.2 percent, while the percentage of juveniles using the Internet totaled 71.7 percent over the same period, the National Statistics Service announced recently.

The percentage of the same group using a mobile telephone over the same period totaled 86.5 percent.

At the same time, a report released by the Observatory for the Greek Information Society stated that there was a sharp rise in internet use by Greek households in 2008, but the 35 to 54 age group still lag behind the European average, unlike the younger generation. The wider availability of broadband is said to be a contributing factor in the adoption of new technologies.
