Click here to take the Digital Divide quiz online or download the quiz or directly open the PowerPoint (or PDF of PowerPoint with notes). Answers and an explanation are in the PowerPoint (or PDF version with notes). The References for Internet Trends lists the sources we consulted. Have fun.

However, it provides an accurate snapshot of internet use during that time. If you have statistics or sources, consider logging in as a LSNTAP member and submitting them yourself!
