I am glad to be back and here to give you some info on some interesting facts that I just read from the article "Social Media & Mobile Internet Use Among Teens and Young Adults". Do you think you know what teens prefer and use now a days when it comes to social sites as well as gadgets? I found this article, and it sure opened up my eyes to how young teens and adults are using the internet to social sites and technology! Let me tell you, it is not what I expected at all! Some interesting facts that I came across was that adults at the age of 50-64 are online and have increased since 2006. I am glad to hear that the older ones are using online much more now. Cell phone ownership increases with educational attainment and income. Teen activities on social networks are going down AND Adults over 30 are still blogging including by sharing photos, videos, artwork, and stories! 28% of internet users are 30 years and older now take part 12% more. I never thought for one moment that the social network for young teens was ever slowing down, but apparently it is! Adults are still using social sites and don't think they will be stopping anytime soon. Besides students slowing down on the social sites, they are no where near stopping the usage of wireless connection on their cell phones, laptops, or their gaming gadgets. I am glad to hear they are still discovering more on the surfing the web. Who knows what will be net for the social sites. Thank you for stopping by and hope you stop by next time :) 51/150
