Source: Pew Internet & American Life Project December 2008 survey. N=2,253 total adults, and margin of error is ±2%. N=1,650 total internet users, and margin of error is ±3%.
*All generation labels used in this report, with the exception of “Younger -” and “Older -” Boomers, are the names conventionalized by Howe and Strauss’s book, Generations: Strauss, William & Howe, Neil. Generations: The History of America's Future, 1584 to 2069 (Perennial, 1992). As for “Younger Boomers” and “Older Boomers,” enough research has been done to suggest that the two decades of Baby Boomers are different enough to merit being divided into distinct generational groups.

In many ways, the Internet more resembles an ancient bazaar…”
