Abstract and citation via Ebscohost.com. 1 page., Cites findings of an internet research project conducted by the Research Center for Social Development of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Findings indicated that for most people, especially the young, the internet provides a new and exciting source of entertainment and a way to communicate with others. It also represents a place where people can find information that is difficult to procure from the traditional media and where they can express their own opinions. More users (51 percent) than non-users (42 percent) said they believe the internet will make the world a better place.
