First it was El D\u00eda del Mundo, followed by Diari de Balears, Diario de Ibiza and finally Ultima Hora. It is expected that at the beginning of 99 the digital edition of Diario de Mallorca will appear completing the Balearic informative offering. If we take in account the important efforts in modernisation and internet presence of the Govern Balear, Consell de Mallorca, Ayuntamiento de Palma, UIB, and the Internet providers and servers and almost all the branches of our economy, we can affirm that 1998 has represented the normalisation of Internet in Mallorca.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>One of the big challenges that is still outstanding is to popularise the Internet and the new technologies to enlarge its social standing. We must make every effort in working together to ensure that nobody misses the big opportunities of personal and collective development that the new technologies offer.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>There are many other challenges that remain on hold but the future is hopeful and with the support of all we can make the year 1999 represent the definitive consolidation of Internet in Mallorca as a useful tool for education, information, opinion, communication and social participation.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>We are convinced that with us all working together this can be achieved.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"toggle-links align_none\"><button class=\"collapsible-content-more\">Llegir m\u00e9s<\/button><button class=\"collapsible-content-less\">Llegir menys<\/button><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-tabs-section\" id=\"ob5a\"><button class=\"w-tabs-section-header\" aria-controls=\"content-ob5a\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><div class=\"w-tabs-section-title\">1999: free email service for everyone<\/div><div class=\"w-tabs-section-control\"><\/div><\/button><div  class=\"w-tabs-section-content\" id=\"content-ob5a\"><div class=\"w-tabs-section-content-h i-cf\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column us_custom_eebf1126 has_text_color\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>With the aim of making ourselves known and popularizing the Internet, in 1999 we opened a free email service for everyone.
