Zuckerberg Unveils Plan To Expand Global Internet Access (expanding potential for online learning)- Kristin Burnham, InformationWeek.com

More than 1.15 billion people use Facebook today and about 2.7 billion people have access to the Internet. But that's not enough for Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg -- he wants that number to grow. Tuesday he announced plans on his Facebook page to bring Internet access to the billions of people who lack it through an initiative called Internet.org. Tech giants Ericsson, Nokia, Qualcomm and Samsung are partners in Internet.org, which aims to drastically cut the costs of delivering basic Internet services on mobile phones, particularly in developing countries where Facebook and other tech companies are seeking new users. http://www.informationweek.com/social-business/social_networking_consumer/zuckerberg-unveils-plan-to-expand-global/240160257
