While some of us are moving at warp speed to embrace technology, there are some who don't have a computer or even a telephone. This is Digital Divide, a serious issue, that needs to be addressed. Each day, more and more politicians, industry leaders, community activists and everyday citizens are becoming involved in the issue, especially at the local level. Despite the various experiences and backgrounds of these diverse groups of people, their end goal is basically the same: providing people with the technology, information and skills needed to help them reach their full potential, whether they're interested in getting a better education, seeking a better career, or building a better neighborhood. Lets listen to Sam to learn more about related issues and using technology in creative, yet effective ways to improve the quality of life for everyone: our families, our communities, and ourselves.
