| Abstract: | Forget surfers. A new class of Netizen is setting right in. It was a typical story, one thousands of American men and women face every day. After her marriage broke up, Bonnie Sakadales, an office worker at the University of Maryland, ventured onto the Internet for the advice on raising her son and daughter alone. Last June, she landed at Parent Soup, a World Wide Web site plastered with parenting information and online "bulletin boards" where visitors swap solace and tips. Within days, Sakadales struck up an online conversation with Al Cole, an Oswego, N.Y., security guard. Last Valentine's Day they were married. |
