Smartphones boost US teens' connections

A Pew Research Center survey released Thursday found that 92 percent of US teens go online daily. A key factor is the growing prevalence of smartphones. Among African-American teens, 34 percent reported going online "almost constantly" as did 32 percent of Hispanic youth and 19 percent of white teens. "American teens, especially African-American youth, have embraced smartphones and the 24/7 access to people and information that they offer," said Amanda Lenhart, a Pew researcher and the lead author of the report.
