Surprise, surprise: 90 per cent of US kids use computers

According to an AP report, a major new survey has revealed that most American kids use computers and the Net.

Well I never… What will these youngsters get up to next? Seriously: I’m putting on a new ‘introductory’ course in my Open University Relevant Knowledge programme. It’s about helping adults to become comfortable with the Net, IM, online music, digital photography, online chat, etc. The working title for the course is “Catching Up With Your Kids”. I’m now wondering if it should be “Catching up with your Grandchildren”!
