The Digital Divide Finally Getting Bridged

eMarketer released a study showing that "The infamous 'digital divide' is finally showing real signs of narrowing, as more and more research gives evidence of rising home broadband usage among black adults. Earlier research already showed this market owned more cell phones—and used more of their features—than other demographic groups."

Meanwhile "Pew Research Center says online Hispanics use location-based services more than any other demographic, as 10 percent of those surveyed had recorded a check-in. That number is noticeably higher than black (5 percent) and white (3 percent) online Americans checking in," according to a ClickZ post.
