Here I address questions of access. Basically I look at four different kinds of access following the framework of van Dijck. I want to use Van Dijck relational approach to digital inequalities because it allows us to understand the complexity of them (the gaps are not absolute, there are relative inequalities between people and their positions and resources). In particular, I like Van Dijck refinement of the concept of access to digital media. According to him there are successive kinds of access:
- motivational
- material
- skills (digital skills could be:operational, informational, and strategic)
- usage.
