Due to the undesirable effects of the gap between citizens to access and use information and communication technologies (ICT), most researchers have been paying much attention to the threat of a digital divide. Unfortunately an amazingly large number of people do not have the abilities to use the ICTs in a proper way and, therefore, cannot draw advantages from its usage. As a result, digital divide is commonly regarded as a potential barrier for participation in the information society. This study measure the digital divide in Saudi Arabia by analyzing the results of a small-scale study conducted at the University KAU, regarding students’ and university members’ perceptions toward the usage of ICT. This analysis measure the digital divide concerning some factors like gender, educational level using a questionnaire. The analysis shows that KAU has no digital divide. Key words: digital divide, information and communications technology, ICT, diffusion of technology, second order effects.

The consumer buying behavior in today's information-saturated world is based on how a product/service is marketed. However, the rapid diffusion of technology anchored growth and challenges on e-marketing trends. For instance, despite the widespread and large-scale adoption of e-marketing around the world, one does not see this trend happening on a big scale in Nigeria. Therefore, this study examines the influence of e-marketing factors on consumer buying behavior in the Nigerian context with particular reference to the University students participating in online business. The study employed the quantitative method, where primary data were collected via online distribution of the questionnaires among 233 customers, specifically students of the Osun state Universities in Nigeria. Also, structural equation modeling using AMOS software was employed to examine the relationship and hypothesis testing. The findings of this study revealed that e-marketing is positively and significantly influence consumer buying behavior in the area of e-mail marketing, mobile marketing, and e-advertising factors. The study asserted that firms must engage the consumers using technology that are more likely acceptable by consumers in the present digital and customer-oriented era. Also, knowing fully the emerging technologies may furnish valuable insights for various stakeholders to work well in Nigeria.
