65% of online adults now use social networking sites, up from 61% one year ago. Women maintain their lead in social networking usage, with 69% of online women using sites compared to 60% of men. While young adults ages 18-29 have always been the most active users of social networking sites, older age groups are adopting them at higher rates, with usage among those ages 50-64 and 65+ increasing over the past year.
Northeast Missouri Regional Planning Commission Broadband Study Findingsmobroadbandnow
The document is a report from the Northeast Missouri Regional Planning Commission's broadband study. It summarizes survey results from 541 households and 29 businesses in the region regarding broadband access and usage. Key findings include that most households have computers but some still lack broadband access. Business broadband access is nearly universal but some expressed needs for improved speeds. The report proposes conducting a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges (SWOC) analysis to develop a strategic plan to improve broadband availability and adoption in the region.
The survey found that half of respondents plan to access the web to watch live Olympic events online. Viewers expect to watch 1.5 hours of coverage daily, with those over 55 and earning over $100K planning to watch the most. Events like gymnastics and swimming are most anticipated by women, while men prefer track and field and soccer. Primetime viewers are more likely to follow the ceremonies and athletes online, while daytime viewers prefer live streaming. Marketers should align TV and online video strategies to reach engaged viewers across platforms.

Director, Pew Internet & American Life Project
October 2, 2009
A discussion of the critical uncertainties about the evolution of the internet.
Pew internet older adults and social mediaEsther Vargas
Social media use among older adults has nearly doubled over the past year. While those ages 18-29 still use social media the most, usage increased most dramatically among those ages 50-64 (up 88%) and 65+ (up 100%). Older adults are using social media to reconnect with people from their past and find support networks. While email is still very popular, social media allows older users to easily share photos, videos, and updates with growing networks of contacts.
Pew internet older adults and social mediaSumit Roy
1) Social networking use among those ages 50 and older has nearly doubled over the past year, from 22% to 42%.
2) Half of internet users ages 50-64 and one in four ages 65 and older now use social networking sites like Facebook and LinkedIn.
3) While email is still the primary method older users maintain contact, many are now relying more on social media to communicate and share content with growing networks.
1) Social networking site use has increased across all age groups since 2005, though those ages 18-29 are still most likely to use them. 2) Over half of American adults now own smartphones, and one quarter mostly access the internet via their phone. 3) Staying connected to family is the main motivation for social media use among those over 50 years old.
Internet usage behaviour by age cathegory from PEW InternetMitya Voskresensky
This document summarizes data from the Pew Internet Project about internet use across different generations. Some key findings:
- Generation X is most likely to bank, shop, and look for health information online compared to other generations. Boomers are as likely as Gen Y to book travel.
- Younger generations (Gen Y and teens) are more likely to use the internet for entertainment, socializing, and communicating with friends. Older generations use it more as a tool for information and purchases.
- Email remains the most popular online activity overall, especially among older users, though its popularity is declining among teens.
- Some activities like video downloads are becoming more evenly distributed across generations now compared to past
The document summarizes key trends in digital technology and its impact on civic engagement:
1) There has been a digital revolution with high rates of internet and broadband access at home, and most adults and teens are now networked creators online.
2) Mobile phones and smartphones are nearly ubiquitous, and many use location services and mobile devices for political purposes.
3) Over half of all adults now use social networking, and over a fifth have used social media for political purposes.
4) This new digital landscape has created new opportunities for civic groups and activists to directly reach audiences, but also risks of "echo chamber politics" where people only engage with those who agree with them.
Director Lee Rainie gave a keynote at the NFAIS annual conference about the way the internet and mobile connectivity have transformed the worlds of networked individuals. He discussed how normal life has changed in the past decade because of three revolutions in technology: 1) the spread of broadband; 2) the rise of mobile connectivity; and 3) the emergence of technological social networks. He will discuss trends and likely future developments in technology that will shape the way people learn, share, and create information.
85% of Americans use the internet and internet use increases with younger age groups. 66% of Americans have home broadband access which has doubled since 2000. Device ownership has seen a mobile revolution with more people owning smartphones and tablets than desktop computers. 2/3 of online adults use social media with nearly half using it on a typical day.
Mary will present the Project’s latest research on social media adoption as part of a day-long workshop organized by and for the staff from the State Department's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the 8 nonprofit organizations that partner with them to design and implement 2 to 3 week study tours around the U.S. for international visitors.
Lee Rainie spoke at the Council on Foundations Annual Conference at a session titled "Philanthropy and the Digital Public Dialogue." Joined by representatives from the Center for Digital Information and other experts in the field, he discussed how advances in digital technology, rapid changes in how citizens access and engage with news and information, and the continued reshaping of the traditional media are dramatically altering the environment in which foundations operate.
Still Setting the Pace in Social Media: The First Longitudinal Study of Usage...Elizabeth Lupfer
This research shows that charitable organizations are still outpacing the business world and academia in their use of social media. In the latest study (2008) a remarkable eighty-nine percent of charitable organizations are using some form of social media including blogs, podcasts, message boards, social networking, video blogging and wikis. A majority (57%) of the organizations are blogging. Forty-five percent of those studied report social media is very important to their fundraising strategy. While these organizations are best known for their non-profit status and their fundraising campaigns, they demonstrate an acute, and still growing, awareness of the importance of Web 2.0 strategies in meeting their objectives.
The document summarizes findings from a survey of 1032 mothers regarding their use of technology and how it impacts their families. It found that both mainstream moms and more tech-savvy moms actively use online communities, especially Facebook, to discuss parenting issues. Virtual connections through these online communities are considered real friendships by many of the moms. Both groups of moms discuss the same wide range of topics online, including sensitive issues about their children's health, behavior, schooling and other family matters.
Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project, will share findings from a new report on e-book lending at libraries. He will also discuss other research about the rise of e-books, their impact on people’s reading habits, and the way that library patrons are hoping to avail themselves of e-book borrowing. Finally, he will explore general reading trends and describe the next steps in the Project’s ongoing research about the evolving role of libraries.

Ipsos MediaCT and YouTube: A Connected Generation - The Rise and Rise of Soci...Ipsos UK
Social media has risen dramatically in popularity and usage. 2 in 3 internet users worldwide visited a social networking site in May 2010. Facebook had 500 million active users in July 2010 and YouTube saw 24 hours of video uploaded every minute. Even older generations are increasingly using social media. It impacts many aspects of life, including how 1 in 6 marriages are now between couples who met on social media. Both consumers and businesses are actively using social media to find information, make recommendations, and promote products and services. Younger people, aged 18-24, are especially active on social media and integrate it deeply into their daily lives and activities. The rise of mobile internet access has also contributed significantly to the rise of social interactions and sharing on social media
The document summarizes key research trends from Pew Internet Project regarding how people use the internet, smartphones, and social media. It finds that internet and broadband access is now widespread, with people conducting extensive online research and travel planning. Mobile device ownership is also high, with people using apps and location-based services for real-time information. Social media use continues to grow rapidly, especially among younger adults, with many people participating in the sharing and discussion of news.
Examining more than a decade of data on the social impact of technology in America, Pew Internet Research Analyst Kathryn Zickuhr discussed the patterns and trends shaping the new messaging realities of the digital age at the WSU Elliott School of Communications’ annual Comm Week conference.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

2. 65% of online adults use social networking sites, and most
describe their experiences in positive terms.
Two-thirds of adult internet users (65%) now say they use a social networking site like MySpace,
Facebook or LinkedIn, up from 61% one year ago. That’s more than double the percentage that reported
social networking site usage in 2008 (29%). And for the first time in Pew Internet surveys it means that
half of all adults (50%) use social networking sites. The pace with which new users have flocked to social
networking sites has been staggering; when we first asked about social networking sites in February of
2005, just 8% of internet users – or 5% of all adults – said they used them.
When we asked SNS users to describe their experiences using the sites, here’s what they said:
Only email and search engines are used more frequently than
social networking tools.
Looking at usage on a typical day, 43% of online adults use social networking, up from 38% a year ago
and just 13% in 2008. Out of all the “daily” online activities that we ask about, only email (which 61% of
internet users access on a typical day) and search engines (which 59% use on a typical day) are used
more frequently than social networking tools.1

Among internet users, social networking sites are most popular with women and young adults under age
30. Young adult women ages 18-29 are the power users of social networking; fully 89% of those who are
online use the sites overall and 69% do so on an average day. As of May 2011, there are no significant
differences in use of social networking sites based on race and ethnicity, household income, education
level, or whether the internet user lives in an urban, suburban, or rural environment.

5. Women maintain a foothold on social networking sites.
Looking more closely at gender differences, women have been significantly more likely to use social
networking sites than men since 2009. As of May 2011, nearly seven in ten online women are users of
social networking sites (69%), compared with six in ten online men (60%). Women are also more active2
in their use of these sites, with almost half of female internet users using social networking sites on a
typical day (48%), compared with 38% of male internet users.

The frequency of SNS use among young adults was stable over
the last year, while usage among older users increased.
Social networking sites have been very popular with young adults ages 18-29 almost since their
inception. Between February 2005 and August 2006, the use of social networking sites among young
adult internet users ages 18-29 jumped from 9% to 49%; during this same time period, use of these sites
by 30-49 year olds remained essentially unchanged. Since then, users under age 30 have continued to
be significantly more likely to use social networking sites when compared with every other adult age
group. As of May 2011, over eight in ten internet users ages 18-29 use social networking sites (83%),
compared with seven in ten 30-49 year-olds (70%), half of 50-64 year-olds (51%), and a third of those
age 65 and older (33%).

However, while young adults have consistently been the most likely to use social networking sites,
internet users in other age groups have seen faster rates of growth in recent years. In the past two
years, social networking site use among internet users age 65 and older has grown 150%, from 13% in
April 2009 to 33% in May 2011. Similarly, during this same time period use by 50-64 year-old internet
users doubled—from 25% to 51%.
Usage patterns on a typical day reveal a slightly different picture. The frequency of social networking
site usage among young adult internet users was stable over the last year – 61% of online Americans in
that age cohort now use SNS on a typical day, compared with 60% one year ago. At the same time, those
ages 30-49 have become somewhat more likely to use the sites on an average day; the frequency of SNS
use among this age group grew a modest 18% (from 39% to 46%) over the past year. However, among
the Boomer-aged segment of internet users ages 50-64, SNS usage on a typical day grew a rigorous 60%
(from 20% to 32%). And unlike the general growth in SNS adoption among those ages 65 and older, the
frequency of use among the oldest group of internet users did not increase significantly over the past
year.

Ask about social networking and good thoughts generally
come to mind.
When social networking users were asked for one word to describe their experiences using social
networking sites, “good” was the most common response. Overall, positive responses far outweighed
the negative and neutral words that were associated with social networking sites (more than half of the
respondents used positive terms). Users repeatedly described their experiences as “fun,” “great,”
“interesting” and “convenient.” Less common were superlatives such as “astounding,” “necessity,” and
“empowering.”
pewinternet.org Page 7
8. However, negative responses were recorded for roughly one in five respondents who answered this
question and these answers included a far more diverse array of adjectives and, at times, expletives.
Frustrations were evident among respondents who described their experiences using the networks as
“annoying,” “overwhelming,” “boring,” “confusing” and “overrated.” Many respondents offered the
words “addictive” or “addicting” as the first thing that came to their mind, while a sizable ambivalent
group said their experiences had simply been “okay.” These neutral descriptions were also quite varied,
though terms that indicated little experience with the sites—such as “Rarely,” “Seldom” or
“Occasionally”—were common in this group.
Because the open-ended question asked respondents to “use one single word to describe your
experiences using social networking sites,” the adjectives that were shared point to both the user’s
interactions on the sites and the functionality of the interface. For instance, one user described her
experiences on the sites as “noisy” while another used the word, “glitches.”

12. Methodology
This report is based on the findings of a survey on Americans' use of the Internet. The results in this
report are based on data from telephone interviews conducted by Princeton Survey Research Associates
International from April 26 to May 22, 2011, among a sample of 2,277 adults, age 18 and older.
Telephone interviews were conducted in English and Spanish by landline (1,522) and cell phone (755,
including 346 without a landline phone). For results based on the total sample, one can say with 95%
confidence that the error attributable to sampling is plus or minus 2.4 percentage points. For results
based Internet users (n=1,701), the margin of sampling error is plus or minus 2.7 percentage points. In
addition to sampling error, question wording and practical difficulties in conducting telephone surveys
may introduce some error or bias into the findings of opinion polls.
A combination of landline and cellular random digit dial (RDD) samples was used to represent all adults
in the continental United States who have access to either a landline or cellular telephone. Both samples
were provided by Survey Sampling International, LLC (SSI) according to PSRAI specifications. Numbers
for the landline sample were selected with probabilities in proportion to their share of listed telephone
households from active blocks (area code + exchange + two-digit block number) that contained three or
more residential directory listings. The cellular sample was not list-assisted, but was drawn through a
systematic sampling from dedicated wireless 100-blocks and shared service 100-blocks with no
directory-listed landline numbers.
New sample was released daily and was kept in the field for at least five days. The sample was released
in replicates, which are representative subsamples of the larger population. This ensures that complete
call procedures were followed for the entire sample. At least 7 attempts were made to complete an
interview at a sampled telephone number. The calls were staggered over times of day and days of the
week to maximize the chances of making contact with a potential respondent. Each number received at
least one daytime call in an attempt to find someone available. For the landline sample, interviewers
asked to speak with the youngest adult male or female currently at home based on a random rotation. If
no male/female was available, interviewers asked to speak with the youngest adult of the other gender.
For the cellular sample, interviews were conducted with the person who answered the phone.
Interviewers verified that the person was an adult and in a safe place before administering the survey.
Cellular sample respondents were offered a post-paid cash incentive for their participation. All
interviews completed on any given day were considered to be the final sample for that day.
Weighting is generally used in survey analysis to compensate for sample designs and patterns of non-
response that might bias results. A two-stage weighting procedure was used to weight this dual-frame
sample. The first-stage weight is the product of two adjustments made to the data – a Probability of
Selection Adjustment (PSA) and a Phone Use Adjustment (PUA). The PSA corrects for the fact that
respondents in the landline sample have different probabilities of being sampled depending on how
many adults live in the household. The PUA corrects for the overlapping landline and cellular sample
frames.
pewinternet.org Page 12
13. The second stage of weighting balances sample demographics to population parameters. The sample is
balanced by form to match national population parameters for sex, age, education, race, Hispanic origin,
region (U.S. Census definitions), population density, and telephone usage. The White, non-Hispanic
subgroup is also balanced on age, education and region. The basic weighting parameters came from a
special analysis of the Census Bureau’s 2010 Annual Social and Economic Supplement (ASEC) that
included all households in the continental United States. The population density parameter was derived
from Census 2000 data. The cell phone usage parameter came from an analysis of the January-June
2010 National Health Interview Survey. Following is the full disposition of all sampled telephone
numbers:

pewinternet.org Page 13
14. The disposition reports all of the sampled telephone numbers ever dialed from the original telephone
number samples. The response rate estimates the fraction of all eligible respondents in the sample that
were ultimately interviewed. At PSRAI it is calculated by taking the product of three component rates:
Contact rate – the proportion of working numbers where a request for interview was made
Cooperation rate – the proportion of contacted numbers where a consent for interview was at
least initially obtained, versus those refused
Completion rate – the proportion of initially cooperating and eligible interviews that were
completed
Thus the response rate for the landline sample was 13.6 percent. The response rate for the cellular
sample was 11.5 percent.
