Story in Ars Technica, apparently there was a study done about internet search habits and such based on socio-economic status. To sum it up... wealthy people use google, poor people use AOL wealthy people are more likely to tweak search results wealthy people are more likely to return to their search results to look for further info wealthy people are more likely to trust university and research institution results poor people tend to accept their results more easily Funny funny. http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20 ... oogle.html |

Thats because wealthy people know more words than the two used by poor people: porn and sex |

Heh... I mean wtf. I'm everything but wealth, but I never used AOL. Since I discovered google that 2002, I can't recall when I used something else last time. |

Indeed. But we're more technical than the average person. I think they're more talking about soccer moms and whatnot instead of people in technology industries (or studies, or whatever). It just goes to show that poor people are poor for a reason. ![]() |
