| Digital Divide | Access to data is powerful. In our Information Age, having both access to that information and the ability to use it can make a big difference in our lives. Computer technology has filtered down to the personal-use level very quickly. Those who have no computer access or skills to keep up with our fast-moving society will soon be left behind. Computer literacy will become a defining factor in the economic worth of a person. The gap will widen between the "Haves" and the "Have-Nots." This gap has been labeled the Digital Divide and has become a worthwhile project for both the government and many empathetic groups and corporations.
