Quick Pew Quiz on how techie you are
Take this quick quiz from the Pew Internet and American Life Institute to see what kind of a communications technology user you are. I am apparently an omnivore, a group that is only 8% of the population (and predominantly young and also 70% male -- hee hee). From their description of the omnivore group:
Members of this group use their extensive suite of technology tools to do an enormous range of things online, on the go, and with their cell phones. Omnivores are highly engaged with video online and digital content. Between blogging, maintaining their Web pages, remixing digital content, or posting their creations to their websites, they are creative participants in cyberspace.
All I can say is that I hope to continue being a creative participant in cyberspace.

I'm a connector, although I've been online longer and am older than most in the group.
The chart of the Technology Groups is interesting.

Oh, my lack of a cellphone killed me. I'm a lackluster veteran. I don't feel lackluster. I feel excited by technology and dedicated to the web, but I just don't want a cellphone.

I am also an omnivore -- but do not fit the "type" at all: I'm too female and too OLD! (waah)
:-)

Hi Sarah,
I am a connector. Apparently I "combine a sense that information technology is good for social purposes with a clear recognition that online resources are a great way to learn new things." I am also double Scorpio...
