Digital Housing

In the six years since event organizers started using the Internet for housing, usage has crept from the single digits to an average of about 35 percent, according to major players in the online housing market. Even in the high-tech sector, large-scale events report widely varying adoption — from 20 percent for the 2001 International Consumer Electronics Show, to 60 percent for SIGGRAPH 2001, to 80 percent for corporate events such as PeopleSoft Connect 2001.
