The Pew Research Center's Internet & AMerican Life Project has been a leader in documenting the patterns of Internet use among diverse populations in the US for several years. Their Technology User Typology has been around for a couple of years, and many teachers find it fun to use as a way of recognizing the different views individuals have towards technology.
I always caution users, however. Just because you may be "Technology Indifferent" does not mean that you are excused from including useful technology your class, not does it mean that your classroom is immune from the effects of technology.
