First-quarter Internet sales better than expected

The first quarter, usually a sleepy time in the retail business, turned out to be unusually busy for online merchants.

The pace of Internet sales, which picked up momentum after Sept. 11, further accelerated in the first three months of 2002, fed by an improving economy, an influx of new shoppers on the Web as well as increased spending from previous customers, according to company reports released this week.
