18、r holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in the US. For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2004 holiday season, 58 percent of those making online purchases were women. “It shows how mainstream the Internet is becoming,” said Lee Rai

19、nie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study. Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending. Users were more likely to shop online to save time. In

20、ternet users between the ages 18 and 29 were responsible for some of the most dramatic increase in the online gift-buying population this time around. However, three- quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2004. They worried about credit card security, or just compared

21、 online prices with off-line prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals. “ But even if shoppers dont buy online , websites are becoming promotion tools for stores,” said Dan Hess, vice president of ComScore Networks Inc.

26、omantic interests, too.

That is more than twice the 22 percent of users who did in 2002, but Pew senior re

27、search specialist Mary Madden was surprised the growth wasnt higher. Yes its doubled, but many Internet users have never done this simple act of plugging their name with search engines, she said. Americans under 50 and those with more education and income were more likely to self-Google because thei

Few Internet users say they Google themselves regularly about three-quarters of self-searchers say they have done so only once or tw

31、ice. And most who have done so consider what they find accurate.
