[Air-l] references on gender, age, support & info tech use

[Eszter Hargittai]

Hi,

A few weeks ago I asked for references to work on gender, age and the
importance of social support in the use of information technologies.
Here's a list of materials to which people (from this and some other
lists) pointed me and additional pieces I found while doing more research
on the topic.  Thanks to all those who sent me suggestions!
