Abstract
Reports the results of a survey of users of Internet cafés in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, to assess their knowledge and awareness of Internet resources. Findings showed the largely male, Tanzanian population used the Internet primarily for personal communication and visiting recreational sites (mainly obscene materials). Low levels of awareness and training among end-users and staff were noted. Recommends better awareness raising, sensitization and training for end-users and staff.
