If you are looking for overall statistics on the Internet and who is using what. A very good report was published by Pew Internet & American Life project called America's Online Pursuits.

<--- Snipped from the America's Online Pursuits report --->


  • As Americans developed expectations about finding vital information on the Internet, those seeking health information online grew by 59%. There were about 46 million Americans who had looked for health or medical information online as of March 2000, and the figure grew to 73 million who had done so by December 2002. In fact, the figure is closer to 93 million, if a variety of health-related searches are asked of Internet users.

Also another good report is on the Internet Use by Region in the United States.

<--- Snipped from the Internet Use by Region report --->


  • The regions of the country with the highest rates of Internet penetration are along the Atlantic seaboard (New England with 66% of the adult population using the Internet and the Capital region with 64% using the Internet) as well as the Pacific seaboard (the Pacific Northwest with 68% online and California with 65% Internet penetration.

And finally if you are looking for what individuals are looking for as in Health Information on the web, take a look at Internet Health Resources. Very interesting indeed.
