- The document discusses internet and mobile device usage trends in the United States based on surveys conducted by the Pew Research Center.
- Key findings include that 82% of American adults now use the internet, with 66% having home broadband access. Cell phone ownership is near universal at 95% of adults, while about half of adults and a quarter of teens have smartphones.
- Internet and technology adoption varies based on age, income, education levels, and race/ethnicity. Younger, wealthier, and more educated Americans are more likely to use broadband and own the latest digital devices.
At a Spectrum Leadership Institute session at ALA's annual conference in Anaheim, CA, research specialist Kathryn Zickuhr will discuss trends in technology access and use among various demographic groups, and what these changes might mean for libraries.
This presentation pulls together information about digital differences among income groups, age groups, racial and ethic groups, and among people with different levels of educational attainment. It covers internet, broadband, mobile, and social networks.
Amanda Lenhart spoke to the “Media and the Well-Being of Children and Adolescents” conference at the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania. The conference brought together academics, researchers, non-profits and industry to discuss the effects of media on child mental and physical health and well-being. In her talk, Amanda focused on bringing together data that highlights the demographic differences among groups of youth in their adoption, use and experiences with technology and social media. While such data may have illustrated what was called a “digital divide” in the past, it now highlights a variety of digital differences among groups of youth. This talk brings together data previously shared in a variety of reports on youth as well as some new analysis.
Pew Internet Project Director Lee Rainie will present findings about the state of digital differences at the Georgetown Public Policy Institute’s Annual Conference on Capitol Hill.

(Corrected version, 11/7/2013) Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet Project, presented the project’s latest findings about who has and doesn’t have access to the internet, broadband, and cell phones. He noted that some of the factors associated with non-use of technology are age, household income, educational attainment, community type, and disability. He also cited findings about why people say they do not use the internet.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, discussed the Center’s latest findings on digital divides based a survey conducted from Sept. 29 to Nov. 6, 2016. The presentation was to the board of Feeding America. Rainie looked at differences tied to internet access, home broadband ownership, and smartphone ownership by several demographic measures, including household income, educational attainment, race and ethnicity, age, and community type. He also discussed the Center’s research related to “digital readiness gaps” among technology users.

Networked Consumers: How networked and how important?Jim Jansen
The Professors Institute, a one and a half day conference for mid-Atlantic college and university professors of marketing and communications. It is hosted by the Direct Marketing Association of Washington Educational Foundation, a nonprofit foundation whose mission is to educate local professors on direct and interactive marketing so as to encourage students to enter the direct marketing industry.
Delvinia Digital Diseases Presentation SmeiDelvinia
Adam Froman identified the six common missteps made by digital marketers that Delvinia calls “digital diseases” which can be found lurking online that wary customers avoid contact like the plague; they are as follows: Widget-it is, Obsessive Content Disorder or OCD, Data-pox, Ad-theria, Mono-typosis and Navigation Deficiency Virus (NDS).
Social media is everywhere and companies and consumers alike are constantly looking for effective ways to utilize online communities, blogs, wikis and the latest social media tools to engage audiences. With more than 300 million people engaged in social media, failing to leverage online mediums is often interpreted as taking a step backwards. It is the age of the consumer and social media has been the catalyst, effectively shifting control from management to the customer. Understanding your customer, giving them a voice and most importantly, listening to what they have to say is key to succeeding in the new digital world.
You will learn:
To effectively engage the audience. Digital marketing and social media in particular is a powerful platform that can create lasting customer relationships and generate millions of dollars for marketers, but you must make things interesting and meaningful.
How to listen to your audience(s). If someone that you do business with offers you advice on improving your business/customer relationship – listen. Maintaining an existing relationship is easier than spending time and money searching for a new one.
To be innovative. The biggest mistake a business can make is not experimenting or developing their digital marketing capabilities. If you’re not doing it, someone else will.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 29, 2020 to scholars, policy makers and civil society advocates convened by New York University’s Governance Lab (GovLab). He described findings from two canvassings of hundreds of technology and democracy experts that captured their views about the future of democracy and the future of social and civic innovation by the year 2030.

Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 14, 2020 at a gathering sponsored by the International Institute of Communications. He described the most recent Center public opinion surveys since mid-March, covering the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, racial justice protests that began in the summer, and the final stages of the 2020 presidential election campaign. He particularly examined how and why people are using the internet in the midst of multiple national crises and their concerns about digital divide and homework gap issues. And he covered how the Center has researched the impact of misinformation in recent years.
Lee Rainie, director of internet and technology research, presented a synthesis of the Pew Research Center’s growing explorations of issues related to trust, facts and democracy at a forum hosted by the International Institute of Communications on December 5, 2018.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
