Thanks, BobSmith.Technology geeks, unite. There are more of you than you might have realized. A study released Sunday found that 31 percent of Americans are “highly tech-savvy” people for whom the Internet, cell phones and handheld organizers are more indispensable than TVs and old-fashioned wired phones.
JOHN HORRIGAN, author of the report by the Pew Internet & American Life Project, said the size of this “tech elite” was somewhat surprising. And while this group is predominantly young, the Pew researchers found plenty of baby boomers and seniors who are equally ardent about using technology.
