4. How the Digital Savvy
Segmentation was Created
Scarborough Research (www.scarborough.com), a consumer and media research firm, created
a special segmentation using its syndicated national study (Scarborough USA+) for the
Digital Savvy analysis. Eighteen hi-tech consumer behaviors and purchasing patterns were
identified and isolated within this national study. These behaviors included household
ownership of certain hi-tech items (such as DVRs, satellite radio or VoIP); consumer
likelihood to engage in certain Internet behaviors (including blogging, downloading music and
online gaming); and usage of leading-edge cellular device features (email, text messaging,
etc.). For each Scarborough USA+ respondent, the number of the 18 hi-tech characteristics
they satisfied was tabulated. Those that had eight or more were classified as “Digital Savvy.”
Nationally, six percent of all consumers are classified as “Digital Savvy.” While this is a small
segment of the population, it is an important one, as the first-mover consumer behaviors of the
Digital Savvy today could become “the norm” tomorrow.
This section details how the Digital Savvy segmentation was created. For more
information about Scarborough’s technology measurements, please see the “About
Scarborough Research” section which begins on page 67.

7. The Digital Savvy
• We identified a small segment of the
6% population
• These are “leading edge” digital
consumers
– Early adopters
– Diffusion of innovation?
• Scarborough USA+ (national
database) was used
– 6-month sample of 111,051
– 5,672 Digital Savvy
– US projection: 13.8 M adults
– August 2006 – March 2007
measurement period

8. Three Key Questions
•Who is the Digital Savvy consumer?
•To what extent are the Digital Savvy different
from the general population?
– E.g., qualitative profile of the early cable TV
audience was distinct from the ultimate profile at
critical mass penetration
– “Early adopter” phenomenon
•To what extent does behavior of the digital
savvy presage the impact of technology on the
general population?
