  • "Report shows shrinking digital divide: A report released March 19 indicates that the digital divide in the United States is shrinking as children from all ethnic groups and income levels increasingly use the Internet. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting reported that children under 17 spend nearly as much time using computers as watching television, with Internet use among minority and low-income children surging over the past two years. More than two-thirds of low-income households have a computer at home, compared to fewer than half two years ago. Gaps persist, however, particularly with respect to high-speed Internet access at home." Summary by Edupage, Source: The Washington Post - 03/19/2003.
