Extract from a BBC report
6 Oct 2005, which errs on (1) SW2000 Telework Studies counted
Rising numbers
Teleworkers were first counted back in 1997.
|
|
Then, just 921,000 people said they used telephones
or computers to let them work at home or to use their homes as a base for work.
Of these, 737,000 said they couldn't in fact work
like this without both a computer and phone.
But by early 2005 the number of teleworkers had
shot up to 2,377,000.
And most - 2.1 million - said they depended on
their digital technology to work from home.
As a result all teleworkers now make up 8% of the
working population, up from 4% in 1997.
However, Alexandra Jones of the Work Foundation
says: "It's not as big a rise as some people were once predicting during
the hype of the dot-com boom."

http://www.workingfromanywhere.org/news/pr100405.htm
Research conducted for ITAC by The Dieringer Research Group as part of
Dieringers 2005 American Interactive Consumer Survey.
The national survey was conducted from August 15 September 1, 2005.
The survey asked respondents to check up to 13 different locations where they
may have conducted work in the past month. The survey found that out of 135.4
million American workers:
Among the 45.1 million Americans working from home (33.3% - NB This will include traditional
non-computer working, usually simple, piece-work; addressing envelopes,
wrapping gifts etc ), the average number of locations they work from
is 3.4.
This survey demonstrates that millions of Americans are embracing
telework the ability to work from anywhere. Other terms relating to telework
include telecommuting (work at home), virtual work and mobile work.
The ability for people to work from anywhere is attributed in part to
increasing availability of portable computer and high-speed communication
technologies, said Robert Smith, Director of ITAC. For example, the use of
broadband in the home by teleworkers increased by over 60% during the past year
resulting in 25.6 million home-based teleworkers with high speed access.

In this UK OxIS survey 13% access
sex sites but the UK survey below, 17th May 05, Pornography on
the Net, shows 87% of men and 56% of women have accessed sex sites the survey concluded that sexual curiosity
had been a significant motive for getting on-line. Maybe its the way the
question is asked? Or, perhaps more likely, sex-sites occupy 13% of the total
time on-line of 87% of men and 56% of women? Theories on a postcard please
and emailed to OII. |
