ICT supports of rural poor in daily living specially in way communications while crisis, protect communication with family, recover information and business. ICT increase the capability and influence of speech and voice rural communities (Fourie, 2008).
Various studies have shown that information and communication technologies (ICT) make a significant contribution to economic growth and social development of communities. This has subsequently been the basis of the assumption that ICT investment in rural communities will result in the desired economic and social development of such communities (Moshapo and Hanrahan, 2004).
Findings of Qlynya and Salari Tabas (2009) revealed that use of computer, internet, SMS system and innovator in rural area have a positive influence on the use of these services by villagers from the office of rural ICT services. Findings of Moshapo and Hanrahan (2004) revealed that voice telephone is the most prominent and utilized service wherever access to ICT is available. The contribution of voice telephone to the development of poor rural communities is however of restricted significance .Internet services that are provided through dial-up over the telephone network infrastructure are of very low utility. Therefore, they know the development of poor rural communities requires ICT services that will attract revenue and public services to community members in the most efficient manner.

The inquiry aims to investigate the use of ICT by the villagers to identify factors influencing the usage development of this technology in the village in order to provide the strategies of services development by ICT. The statistical society of the study consisted of 1204 literate villagers with dairy farm or agricultural job resident in Central division of Najaf Abad County. By using multi-staged proportional random sampling, 172 persons (by Cochran formula) were selected.

Results
The study showed that the mean age of respondents was 40 years, and most frequency is placed in level of age (14-24) and (36-46) years. In terms of the level of education, most frequency (40.8 percent) is related to respondent by read and write and primary school level of education. The main job was 38.8 percent farmers, 51.1 percent self-employed, 5.8 percent the state, 4.3 percent other occupations (council, villager pal, cooperative, and spiritual). 43.1 percent of respondents lacked computer skills, 22.4 percent had few, 18.4 percent had average and 16.1 percent had high skills at using computers. 58 percent of respondents lacked internet skills, 15.5 percent had few, 11.5 percent had average, and 14.9 percent had high skills at using the internet.

The results of correlation analysis showed that the more favorable attitude respondents have had, the more ICT tools they have used. Also the result of LSD test illustrated respondents who had favorable attitude used these technology more than two groups with neutral and unfavorable attitude. Observations this section of inferential analysis confirm findings regression analysis that showed one of the most important factors affecting the use of rural ICT, is respondent's attitude towards using ICT in village. However, only 31% of respondents had a favorable attitude. Therefore, something must be done to improve the attitude of villagers towards ICT. In this regard, use local connectors and training classes of ICT applications in village can be effective.
