Pew Broadband Diffusion Report Out

The Pew Internet & American Life Project has released a new report that analyzes existing gaps in home broadband adoption among Americans. The commentary suggests where stakeholders in the broadband debate might take aim if they want to do something to encourage those lacking broadband access to get off the digital sidelines.

The Pew Internet & American Life Project is a highly respected research organization located in Washington, D.C.   They produce the most sophisticated data available when it comes to analyzing online trends.  Pew research covers diverse topics including Internet penetration, diffusion trends, blogging and a variety of other online pursuits.  Pew findings are designed to give us a better understanding of online activities (who is using the Internet, how often and for what).  Often quoted by media institutions such as the New York Times, ABC tv, etc., Pew is an authoritive source on the evolution of the Internet. 

The new report on broadband adoption, compiled by John Horrigan, Associate Director & Pew researcher, is available here.
