Home Broadband Adoption 2009 - Pew Research Center
"Home broadband adoption stood at 63% of adult Americans as of April 2009, up from 55% in May 2008.
The latest findings of the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project mark a departure from the stagnation in home high-speed adoption rates that had prevailed from December 2007 through December 2008. During that period, Pew Internet Project surveys found that home broadband penetration remained in a narrow range between 54% and 57%.
The greatest growth in broadband adoption in the past year has taken place among population subgroups which have below average usage rates"

Academic Productivity » Diigo - Web Highlighter and Sticky Notes, a delicious killer?
As you may have observed, here at ap we are fans of social bookmarking and collaboration (we have the homepage delicious bar under each post). Showing what people have bookmarked gives us feedback, and it is Up to now the leading contender in this space was delicious. But after finding Diigo, I cannot understand how delicious lost their competitive advantage so fast. Diigo is a killer app, and it works in many browsers. Delicious could be very useful to align your thought with collaborators. All in all, I’ve never seen an entrance in a monopolized market (social bookmarking) with this strength and resolution. Diigo is very impressive, and my bookmarking tool of choice.

You could say Diigo combines all the best features of social bookmarking sites like del.icio.us and social networking sites like Facebook, which we discussed in a previous post. But spend just fifteen minutes exploring the video tutorials, how-to guides and user-generated content over at the Diigo Help Center and you’ll quickly realize that this is truly a unique and transformative tool. Diigo has the potential to change the ways in which we mentor all our students, but in particular, our graduate students and pre-service teachers, in a process that John Dewey calls ‘productive inquiry’
