Online Gambling May Be Factor In Internet Popularity

Online gambling could be a popular way to use an internet connection.

Online gambling may be a contributory factor to the internet's rise to the top of the entertainment league table.

Dan Oliver, editor of .net magazine, says a connection to the world wide web is now an "essential" item.

The internet is now not only the most popular way to shop, it is the primary method of entertainment for many people.

Mr Oliver states: "Using the net as a way to deliver advice and services is only going to increase."

One popular aspect of the internet for a substantial number of people across the world is online gambling, with bookmakers such as 888.com offering their own services.

Users of such sites are given the opportunity to view odds and place bets on upcoming sports events, as well as play in online casinos.

According to a recent report by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, an internet connection is now classed as essential in all non-pensioner households.
