We can tell you on a personal note that our little pup uses their services on a daily basis at a local library, so sure, we are a bit biased. The bias may also have to do with the fact that the group has always been run by total babes. Austin Free-Net is a nonprofit corporation providing public access to the Internet and emerging technologies for all Austin residents, especially those who don't have computers in their homes.
Services are available only in public locations.
So begins the mission statement of Austin's arbiter and equalizer in the digital divide. But it's a little bit more complicated than that. The digital divide not only affects low-income people or people of color, but anybody who is not 'in the loop,' so to speak. Still, we cannot make assumptions about anybody in this work. We can't make assumptions just because they fit these categories.
