With the rapid changes in communication technologies, health agencies and programs, including the NCI, are struggling to figure out how to take advantage of the new and emerging forms of communication in efforts to promote and maintain health. Distilling hype vs. reality.. Etc.
Reaching people where they are. Social influences (The Science article)

Persistent digital divide? Disparities in health-related internet use?
1- Still, at least 40% of survivors not on the Net and not directly/first-handedly benefiting from Internet-based cancer communication tools and programs…. sociodemographic variability in terms of internet use…
Besides better design and usability: we also need to think about the gaps that can be filled by social media and communication changes.
