@@Who Are Chatters?@
@
On any given night there are over 30 million people chatting on
the net. They come from all walks of life: upper/lower class, career/
unemployed, teens/retired. Those who live in this country may end up
chatting with someone from the Middle East, Japan, South Africa, or
the North Pole. They become intimate with chatters they may never
meet or choose to interact with in "real" life. The one
thing in common about these people is that they are all part of the
new global village on the internet.
