Men and Women Online – Gender Differences

Posted on January 17th, 2006 by Brenda

The Pew Internet and American Life project has released a new report, which compares internet usage by women to internet usage by men. The study highlights some interesting differences in usage, but in the end, data shows that men and women are more similar than different in their online lives, showing a common appreciation for the internet’s efficiency and for the ability to perform online transactions that simplify their lives by saving time on such mundane tasks as buying tickets or paying bills. Men and women also value the internet for a second strength, as a gateway to limitless vaults of information.
