What kind of tech user are you?

The Pew Internet and American Life Project has released a report, "The Mobile Difference," which places American adults into 10 different Internet user types, depending on how they feel about information technology, what kind of information technology they have in their lives and how they use it in their lives.

CNN has published an interview with the project's associate director of research, in which they explore some of the details of the user types quiz and results. Below is a sampling of some of the 10 user types and the percentage of respondents that identified with each type.

-Digital Collaborators - use information gadgets to collaborate with others and share their creativity with the world - 8%

-Ambivalent Networkers - heavily use mobile devices to connect with others and entertain themselves, but don't always like it when the cell phone rings - 7%

-Desktop Veterans - dedicated to wireline access to digital information and like how it opens up the pipeline to information - 13%

-The Tech Indifferent - unenthusiastic about the Internet and cell phones - 10%

-Off the Network - neither cell phone nor Internet users - 14%

Take the quiz here and see what type of user you are, Digital Collaborator? Ambivalent Networker?
