This graph shows the rise of Internet use among U.S. adults over time.

Nearly three-quarters of American adults use the Internet, more than 
half connect wirelessly via laptop or handheld, and 60 percent use 
broadband connections at home, according to a survey released Tuesday.

The Pew Research Center survey (PDF) also found that Internet users in 
the U.S. tend to be young, white, and educated, with an equal 
distribution between men and women.
