First thing's first, we define digital divide: An expression used by government adviser Dr. Simon Moores in a 1996 BBC television interview on digital inclusion, the digital divide is the socio-economic difference between communities in their access to computers and the Internet.

Plain, simple, and straight forward. However, I don't quite agree with this definition. It gives the aura that this difference can vanish simply by granting the disadvantaged communities the access to computers and Internet. NEGATIVO!! I remember when I first saw the computer lab in my JHS filled with Commodore 64s. Now that I think about, I had no clue as to what those things were going to be used for, but it just felt good to see them. NYC public JHS filled with Commodores back in those days was an honor. But what were the systems used for? California Games and any other game the local ghetto geeks could fit on a 5.25" floppy.

I will now do like the experts and define a term for what was mentioned above, "Unstructured Exposure". Personally, I like the term. It has scalability and literal meaning. It will not be limited to Information Technology topics. It will cross various fields such as science, sociology, politics, and others.
