The line graph demonstrates a comparison in the changing patterns of domestic modern technology accessible between homes in the UK divided by percentage during a period from 1996 to 2003.
Overall, there was a steady growing trend among the figures throughout the years, with most of the appearances were spotted at the beginning of the considered period, while the Internet existed from 1998, about two years later.
CD player had always been considered as the most popular form of domestic technology, even from the beginning with the percentage of 60% accessible, while at that time, the Internet had not existed yet. Not until the year of 1998/99 was the Internet invented, starting with a tiny number of below 20% homes accessed to. To the end of the time, CD player, along with the Internet, maintained their stable increase; While CD player grew strongly but not rapidly (from 60% to nearly above 80%), the Internet, in contrast, rose with such a dramatic speed, eventually marking at over 40% accessible in homes.
For the rest of the modern technology – home computer and mobile phone – had their get-offs at about 30% and beneath 20% in order in 1996/97. Since then, they had brought their figures higher and higher when they experienced a meet in the middle of the considered period (1998-2000). Home computer seemed to rise with steady ease to nearly 60% compared to mobile phone, which fluctuated pretty messy on its way up until finally stopped at the percentage of 70% in 2003.
