Often it's
assumed that teenagers are the main users of social networking tools from
Facebook to Twitter.
However the research conducted over the last few years indicates that the real
situation is a little different.
Based on the most recent Pew Internet research (of US internet
users 18+) the median age of popular social networks are as follows,
- Twitter median user age 31 yrs
(stable from May 2008),
- Facebook median user age 33 yrs
(up from 26yrs in May 2008),
- MySpace median user age 26 yrs
(down from 27yrs in May 2008),
- LinkedIn median user age 39 yrs
(down from 40yrs in May 2008).
