[1]Facebook, [2]MySpace and [3]Twitter. He runs a Yahoo forum, reads news
online and keeps in touch with friends via email. Nothing unusual, right?

lifestyle from his residence under a highway bridge. Thanks to cheap
computers, free Internet access and sheer determination, the WSJ reports

need a TV. You don't need a radio. You don't even need a newspaper,' says
Pitts. 'But you need the Internet.'"
