One of the communication technologies that interested me the most was “The Digital Divide”. According to the lecture, it is “the divide between people with effective access to online information and those with either limited or no access. This divide is broken down into two categories being the technology “haves” and “have nots”. The lecture states, that the technology haves are the “better-educated, wealthy, Caucasians, and Asians, while the have nots are the “less-educated, poor, African Americans, and Hispanics. This was interesting to me because the lower class families don’t have access to the information and knowledge that the upper class families have. This allows the rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer.
