Abstract
The 1990's saw an unprecedented growth of the WWW. It was assumed that students would correspondingly take up the associated technologies. Between 1995 and 2000 a longitudinal study was carried out to test the usage and confidence of students using WWW browsers in a university environment. The results show that use of the WWW has increased to near saturation levels although a bias is evident between male and female users. A correlation was established between the frequency of use and confidence with which WWW browsers are being used.
