The internet and indeed the World Wide Web are fast becoming the media with the highest penetration in Nigeria. They are essentially information technology (IT) resources. Urua (2006) states that the internet is a flexible, computer-based, global information system with many interconnected computer networks, enabling thousands of computers to share information. With the internet, it is now possible for people, businesses and governments throughout the world to communicate quickly and inexpensively. It has a wide range of uses including research, teaching, taxation (in form of filling in tax returns online) and shopping.
