ÿÿÿÿ ú 44 percent of the young people say that going online has increased their interest in current events;
ÿÿÿÿ ú A majority of online young people said they'd prefer to be stranded on a desert island with a computer hooked up to the Internet rather than have a telephone (36 percent) or a TV (10 percent);
