"What Moms want [online] is information," says Ken Goldstein, EVP and Managing Director of Disney Online.

Give them the information they're looking for and you're tapping into an enormous market: there are 31 million moms online, and they're spending more time online than they are watching TV (13.2 hours/week vs. 7.6 hours/week).

Goldstein gave us more Mom statistics, and shared what he has learned from a quantitative study conducted through a nationwide KidzEyes panel from C&R Research (1,823 mothers of one or more kids ages 2 - 14 years, from heavy Internet users to non-techie Moms) in July and October 2003.

He also talked to us about what he's learned from Disney's own marketing to Moms online.
