Final Thoughts
• Cell phones leap frog connectivity roadblocks for low income, minority teens and adults
• Teens and young adults are not monolithic – so a multi-pronged approach is prudent
• Changes suggest a move towards mobile…
• …but teens and young adults do not always embrace the newest thing
• Young adults know that people are watching, and are increasingly taking steps to manage their online reputations
• Difficulties teens have with safety, privacy, audience management are hard for adults, too.
