1. According to the Digital Divide Network website at 〈http://www.digitaldividenetwork.org/content/stories/index.cfm?key= 168〉, there are currently estimated to be 429 million people with access to the Internet globally, representing 6% of the World's total population. Of course, the massively uneven distribution of this privileged 6% across the globe is the reason that organizations like the Digital Divide Network exist.
