The document summarizes key trends in digital technology and its impact on civic engagement: 1) There has been a digital revolution with high rates of internet and broadband access at home, and most adults and teens are now networked creators online. 2) Mobile phones and smartphones are nearly ubiquitous, and many use location services and mobile devices for political purposes. 3) Over half of all adults now use social networking, and over a fifth have used social media for political purposes. 4) This new digital landscape has created new opportunities for civic groups and activists to directly reach audiences, but also risks of "echo chamber politics" where people only engage with those who agree with them.
