compared with white mobile phone users."



In my short time in academia, it may be the most positive study pertaining to 
African-Americans I have ever read. Let me explain...

Most of us know that there are very real advantages for the tech user. For 
example, strategic use of social media can lead to job referrals.  A comfort 
with technology can allow someone to take online courses and squeeze in those 
courses needed to get a BA without having to quit a full time job.  Familiarity 
with search engines can lead to choice information on government programs or 
deals at retail stores.  Using dating sites can expand one's dating pool, 
potentially increasing the chances of finding a future spouse.  All this is to 
say that on average, an Internet user is generally better off than a 
non-internet user.
