We also found a contrast in computer accessibility, use, and knowledge between participants in rural and urban regions. Thus, our study draws attention to a ‘digital divide’ within Kenya. In rural areas, a large number of participants did not have knowledge about computers. This was partly because they were occupied with subsistence farming and small-scale income generating activities that were barely enough to support gaining knowledge about computers. On the other hand, the working class (civil servants and business men), college, graduates and, to some extent, low income individuals living in urban areas were already using more advanced communication technologies (e.g., Facebook, Skype).
