| summary |
In the countryside of Ceara state, one of the poorest of Brazil, stays the city of Solonopole. Despite the lack of resources, some applications of information and communication technologies are being employed in daily life, by low income population. Almost all of local schools have computers and also free access to the internet, and so do citizens from their houses but also from a telecentro. This is only possible thanks to the use of free software, as Linux, and radio waves connection. |
