  College students are probably the largest users of entertainment content via high speed networks today. They also represent the workforce who will be bringing their skills and ideas to the marketplace in the near future -- continuously. This study will create teams of technology companies in conjunction with a defined student community to:
  
  1. define usability indices which will drive creation and delivery of content and content-based tools to this community via the Internet and,
  2. form a collaboration between college students and technical professionals in technology and entertainment industries.
