Tuesday June 22, 7:09 pm Eastern Time AOL'S Andreessen sees Internet boom By Nicole Volpe NEW YORK, June 22 (Reuters) - America Online Inc.'s (NYSE:AOL - news) chief technologist on Tuesday called the Internet an unstoppable force that will sweep through America and the rest of the world, boosted by such popular features as electronic mail. ''The more people that are online, the more valuable the Internet becomes, and the more people will be drawn to it,'' Chief Technology Officer Marc Andreessen said. ''You really can't stop it.'' He said easy-to-use features such as e-mail and instant messaging were the ''tornado applications'' that would power growth of the Internet, much as certain useful software programs brought the boom of the personal computer. His comments came a day after AOL said it would offer high-speed Internet access via satellite to far-flung rural areas not currently wired for fast connections. The company announced Tuesday it would offer AOL e-mail over 3Com's (Nasdaq:COMS - news) handheld devices. Andreessen spoke at PC Expo, a vast computer convention being held here this week.
