Hi all

 

The just released report from the Pew Internet and American Life Project may be of interest.

 

Social Media and Young Adults

http://pewinternet.org/Reports/2010/Social-Media-and-Young-Adults.aspx

 

Two Pew Internet Project surveys of teens and adults reveal a decline in blogging among teens and young adults and a modest rise among adults 30 and older. In 2006, 28% of teens ages 12-17 and young adults ages 18-29 were bloggers, but by 2009 the numbers had dropped to 14% of teens and 15% of young adults. During the same period, the percentage of online adults over thirty who were bloggers rose from 7% blogging in 2006 to 11% in 2009.

 

Cheers

 

Phil
