Many Internet features mirror those we see in everyday life, but are significantly expanded. On a BBS relating to archery, for example, one would type his way in and find numerous notices or stories regarding archery equipment and activities, perhaps even classified ads. The cyberspace archery buff can also find and join public discussions of archery and related topics. It's all so very easy. One or more other aficionados respond and post their answers, and so on.
Correspondence is instantaneous and everyone gets to see everything and can join in if they want.
Letterhead and business cards now carry them, too. Computer services including America Online, CompuServe, Delphi, GEnie, Prodigy and even Dow Jones provide access to the Internet and offer numerous ways to make traveling through the Internet easy, inexpensive and comprehensive. And as any dedicated Internet user will tell you, cruising the information superhighway is as habit-forming as eating peanuts or potato chips. The Internet is growing by leaps and bounds, at an estimated rate of 10 to 20 percent per month. Criminals and bigots exist in society, so it comes as no surprise that they also exist on the Internet.
