8. Bridging the digital divide
Getting online is not enough
Digital literacy for both digital visitors and residents
Mix digital outsiders & insiders

9. Kids are already learning after school -
there are studies out there that show they’re
online, finding interests from peer circles
and becoming experts and reaching
mentors.
So all that we really need to do is for
libraries and schools and other like-minded
agencies to realize how they can be a part
of that learning, which is already happening

Centralization has become the norm—the
parameters of everything we do online are
determined by a few large organizations. We've
grown to accept the idea that the main activity of
online life should be contributing content to
platforms that someone else controls.
We risk creating an Internet where the
possibilities are determined
by Michelle Baker, the views of a few.

The Internet offers untold potential for humanity.
To make the most of it, we need to think of the Internet as “ours.”
The heart of the Internet is individuals taking action,
making things, solving problems,
and ultimately building their own environment
People are more naturally protective
of what they create than of what they consume.
