  2. PEW recognized that English speaking Hispanics and transient populations are more likely to have cell phones than any other technology. Many of them are web-enable to allow them to use the internet to stay connected to resources and other people. 79% of Wisconsin residents have access to the internet, similarly 78% in NE Wisconsin. In comparison to other technologies 94% have a home phone (NE Region &amp; WI), 70% (NE Region) &amp; 68% (WI) have cell phones.

  5. 68% of all Americans (internet users and non-users alike) said the internet has had a major impact on the ability of groups to communicate with members. 60% a major impact on the ability of groups to connect with other groups. 59% a major impact on the ability of groups to organize activities. 52% a major impact on the ability of groups to raise money. 51% a major impact on the ability of groups to recruit new members. 49% a major impact on the ability of groups to impact local communities. 35% a major impact on the ability of groups to find people to take leadership roles.

  6. Blogs : 2009 data shows a decline in blogging among teens and young adults (28% 2006 to 14% 2009) meanwhile adults 30 and over increased (7% 2006 to 11% 2009) Much of the drop in blogging among younger internet users may be attributable to changes in social network use by teens and young adults. Facebook (most popular social netwrok) does not provide a tool for blogging within the network. Twitter: teens ages 12-17 do not use Twitter in large numbers – just 8% of online teens 12-17 say they ever use Twitter , a percentage similar to the number who use virtual worlds. This puts Twitter far down the list of popular online activities for teens. Source: Lenhart A, Purcell K., Smith A., &amp; Zickur K. (2010 February 3) Social Media and Young Adults .
