What does the Internet mean to you? The Internet
means connection. It is a tool for reaching out to friends
and opportunities. Find information. Communicate with family,
friends, customers and co-workers. Send letters, documents
and pictures. Swap tips with your fellow hobbyists. Shop
for goods and services. Advertise your business.
What can the Internet mean to you? The Internet
offers many resources for improving your quality of life:
· Take classes · Consult with business experts · Join associations
· Talk to doctors · Pay your bills and bank online · Access
government services
Who is helping you get Internet access? e-NC/ e-Harnett
County is connecting North Carolina and Harnett County to
a better future. The e-NC/ e-Harnett County campaign's mission
is to ensure that all North Carolina citizens, businesses
and communities are aware of, know how to use, and have
access to high-speed Internet services at affordable prices.
Just as the paving of farm-to-market roads during the 1940s
resulted in an economic upswing and a newfound sense of
community across North Carolina, laying the Internet highway
also will promote prosperity across the state and link us
together.

dial-up access -- the ability to connect to the Internet
by placing a local telephone call -- is available statewide.
