Americans said they got most of their news on the Internet,more than double the 17% who said that a year earlier,the report said. In January,2011,7% of Americans owned electronic tablets,nearly double what it was three months earlier. It was the fastest-growing new digital technology, ahead of mobile phones when they were introduced. The online ad income was expected to surpass (超 过) print newspaper ad income for the first time in 2010.
The news business used to be the intermediary (中介). You needed newspapers and TV stations to
reach your customers. In this age of the computer,it5s the software developers that you need.
