The Internet is an advanced technology with all the accompanying promises and threats to change society which needs those promises fulfilled. But Nepal still is not promoting the Internet by establishing schemes to encourage educational institutions and businesses to connect. Currently Nepal is looking into the issue of Internet indicating that Nepal is not ignoring this global phenomena but wrestling to put itself in the global IT map. Like most of the least developed countries, Internet access is confined with in a small group of people in Nepal too, dividing society into information have and have-not. Even for the people with access, the Internet lacks the content which is relevant to Nepal, as almost all the contents are available only in English.
Email is of course most widely used Internet application in Nepal.
Contents that are used widely are information and news. However, there is an ample of space for further harnessing. In the present context there is a lack of policy for Internet or Information Technology as well as regulations barring few legal provisions and committees. This paper will try to shed lights on the current status of Internet content as a info- sharing and applications of the Internet. Further, few recommendations have been suggested for consideration.
