Summary:
In 1974, seven $100,000 grants were awarded for the design of experiments to deliver social and administrative services on interactive cable television.

This report summarizes the results of the follow-up study, including the following elements: (1) a chronological review of significant literature; (2) an overview of the social and administrative uses of cable television; (3) a review of the design and current status of each of the seven projects; and (4) recommendations.
