So, recently I convinced my Mother to use Live Messenger as a means of keeping in touch. She was BLOWN AWAY by this fascinating technology and even MORE excited when she learned about emoticons. These are things that I'm sure both you and I take for granted as common knowledge. I started wondering if I  was the uncommon one and maybe most people aren't aware of the wonders of the internet. So I set out on a mission to find out how much the average person walking the street knows about these curious machines known as "computers". The results are incredible...

Links aren't working. Sad 

I want to see the incredible results!

try pressing the play button on the left side while you wait for the download links to work...

great social study btw, i didnt know the i "less than three" geeks emoticon, but the rest i knew so i guess im a real techy... just dont drop me off in china and make me apply for a political position there.

I knew all of this.

Which is not necessarily a good thing. Of course, I've been on-line since the days of Bitnet Relay, Gopher, and text MUDs...
