The new information communication technology represented by the Internet has been growing explosively since the beginning of the 1990s. Simultaneously there has appeared a new global gap between the rich and the poor, that is, the widening “digital gap.' Leaders of all countries are concerned and the problem has become a focus of study in academic circles. Adopting the “main factor' method this paper analyses the influence of various factors over the popularization of Internet, showing that economic development level, national capability of knowledge development, openness to the outside world and introduction of communication technology are the prime determinants of the level of Internet popularization. Faced with the widening gap, countries of the developing world must be run in a new way so as to effectively make use of information technology and complete a great leap in development. They must hasten their steps in transforming into information and knowledge societies, narrowing the gap between them and the “rich countries of information.' Here we have an important option for the developing countries against the world background of globalization and the revolution in information technology.
