Abstract	This paper addresses the concepts of digital natives and digital divide from the perspective of the digital outsiders (part of digital natives). It takes a critical look at the implications of available ICT in both developed and underdeveloped countries in the fight against digital divide. The major contribution to literature is by drawing attention to the inevitability of technology mediated learning and the need to embrace ICT adapted to countries strengths and weaknesses in the fight against digital divide. However, data used for this study significantly reveal how digital natives in the developed countries and digital outsiders in underdeveloped countries could achieve digital diffusion, especially those from underdeveloped countries with highly limited opportunities. As a result, there is no contesting the future of educational pedagogy depends on technology. Hence, people must take advantage of available technology in designing pedagogy. In the end, digital divide is relative and should apply differently in both developed and underdeveloped regions to enable rapid and sustainable digital diffusion despite the odds confronting digital natives globally.
