Re: [DDN] Digital Divide Bridging as Economic Stimulus
Committee, convened by Rep. Constance Howard and Rep. Julie Hamos, and facilitated by Community Life Initiative, IIT industrial management and technology program, Illinois Association of Regional Councils and Chicago-based Lumity.That hearing, including testimony by CIO's of State of Illinois, Cook County and City of Chicago and Illinois Rural Healthnet, pledged Illinois leadership as a Digital Age Activities and Digital Government state, as a strategy facilitated by Benton Foundation to link local-state-national initiatives. See Benton December 2008 report Action Plan for America: Technology and Innovation to Address Our Nation's Critical Challenges. www.benton.org In sum, Illinois has taken an important step to meet the Obama Administration pledge to provide electronic patient records for all Americans within 5 years by expanding Access to better health information through a rural broadband backbone and through better tools for urban and rural medical professionals and citizens.

Sorry but it is in portuguese, but I will try to translate to English my virtual library as soon as possible. But if you can read in portuguese you will find a lot of material in the section Inclusão Digital (digital divide in portuguese). My website Micromundos Library is located at: http://bibliotecamicromundos.com My work as digital inclusion researcher in CENRID is to select scientific information of digital inclusion, and informations of researchers and groups of research. The most important brazilian report of this year is: Survey on the use of information and communication technologies in Brazil 2007 from CGI at: http://www.cetic.br/tic/2007/indicadores-cgibr-2007.pdf There is a lot os statistic data internet conections and use of Internet by brazilians and they follow the international indicators. Take a look of CGI website at http://www.cgi.br/internacional/index.htm You can also find the historical series of the CGI report at http://www.cgi.br/publicacoes/index.htm You can also take a look at National Digital Library of Master's Dissertions and Thesis of Brazil ( It's is the most important brazilian digital libraryl). BDTD is a service of Ibict and it is located at http://bdtd.ibict.br/ Another important scientific databases is Diretório de Grupos de Pesquisa no Brasil ( CNPq - Ministry of Science and Technology). You can find this scientific databases at http://dgp.cnpq.br/buscaoperacional/ One of the jobs that I make as researcher in Ibict is to select and organize scientific information and find researchers and groups of research in the universities of Brazil in the field of digital inclusion.

Re: [DDN] Digital Divide in Wikipedia
I have just checked the Wikipedia article for Digital Divide, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_divide And it says the page is in need of expert attention. Great idea, Dani. I'd do it myself except I'm swamped. You probably know the background, but for people who don't... A major problem with the existing Wikipedia item is that it's too textbookish. among other things, and lacks a sense of history. The Clinton Administration was not perfect, but, in addition to taking some action, it did much good in educating people as to the existence of the Divide in the first place. One must person to consult would be none other than Bonnie Bracey (http://www.digitaldivide.net/profile/bbracey), a DDN regular, of course, who thought up the Kickstart project and was the only classroom teacher on the Clinton Administration's National Information Advisory Council. Andy Carvin, the moderator here, would also be good to catch up with.
