You know how we love infographic time at WorkSnug! And this is an interesting one. It talks about the Internet Revolution as a Generally Good Thing - and I think we’re all in agreement on that! But it highlights its inequality in America.
US broadband statistics
Did you know that…?
- 100,000,000 US households don’t have broadband access
- Fibre optic broadband is 5 times as expensive in the US as it is in Paris
- America is the world’s richest country yet ranks 12th for Internet access
Mobile computing in the US
What the infographic doesn’t cover is mobile broadband and computing. We shared results from iDG’s iPad survey, which showed the other side of the coin, namely mobile computer usage amongst business and IT professionals in the US.
The mobile computing revolution may have started, but as the infographic below demonstrates, it will likely leave some people behind.
