summary
This paper is part of a research study on the spatial distribution of Information and Communication Technologies in the city of Salvador. The purpose is to analyze the new tendencies in the configuration of the urban space. It intends to present the issue from a broader viewpoint and specifically analyze two Internet connection services offered in various public areas: Infocentros installed by Programa de Inclusão Digital do Estado da Bahia; and hotspot Internet connection services offered by private corporations. It is verified that the localization of such services reinforces the patterns of current spatial dispersion or concentration in the city. [Full paper in Portuguese]
