Jun 10, 2010 by lolcakes | Posted in Birds

Hi, I live in QLD, Australia. This Bird seems to be new to the neighborhood and i was wondering what type/species it is.. I dont think its a native here.. maybe migrated or something? And its deffantly not a crow/raven. Its colour is fully black, kinda

Nope, not a raven or a crow, but close. =D

I believe that is a Drongo, a Spangled Drongo. They are the only type of Drongo that lives in Australia. Beautiful tail.

Thanks for showing us the picture!

The rise and rise of the smartphone elite

18.05.12

Probably not. This is different from the classical digital divide, which separates users based on their ability to access empowering information services, and almost immediately translates into a lack of opportunity for the have-nots. Broadband outreach initiatives around the world are driven by governments and private sectors working to bridge that sort of divide to avoid that digital poverty.

In the mobile communication space, that is not the case. The smartphone elite does not have access to much the mass market does not (Angry Birds doesn't count). Both have access to the same telecoms networks, and the same fundamental modes of communication – voice and text. Both can interact with key services like banking and e-government, in part because the service providers know full well that they have to tailor those services to both camps, and have been working for years to do so.

The jump from no phone to any phone is enormous, opening the door to a world of communication. The step from feature phone to smartphone is much more modest.
