Abstract: Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Most of the people live in villages. Most of the city dwellers also come from villages. Bangladesh is a small but resourceful country of South Asia. Internet is very essential in modern world it gives this world in our doorsteps. There is a internet user between developed and developing countries. The digital divide around the world is usually measured through statistical indices such as the number of telephone lines, personal computers, websites and Internet users and their ratio to the total population. With an estimated internet user-base of around 10 million coming into 2013, representing just under 6.6% user penetration by population, the local internet industry has been preparing to move into the next stage of its development. Internet is a part of our life in present day. If we have an internet connection, the whole world in our hand. If most of the people of the country get the facility of internet, they get a digital life and we get a digital life and we get a digital Bangladesh, which is a developed country. Digital Bangladesh should be the first step towards the death of distance particularly for the rural people with the secretariat or any other powerhouse with whom the citizens are involved for Governance.
Keywords: Internet User, Population, Digital divide, Internet services, Problems and Prospects.
