All that social networking, it's for the children right? Apparently not according to the most recent survey of the people using the popular websites.
Conducted by an independant organisation, a survery has shown that Facebook is definitely getting older, hopping from a median age of 26 in May 2008, to 33 now.
Considering Facebook was made for college students, its certainly an interesting move upwards, but could be attributed to nosey parents signing up to keep an eye on their wayward teens.
Even more interesting is that despite a number of reports saying that the young'uns out there have no interest in Twitter, it is currently the second youngest social network out there – even though the median age is still 31. Once again does this now leave a gap for a new social network with fresh new ideas (bongal)?
Out of all of the social networks, MySpace came out with the youngest average age at 26, but really – apart from musicians, does anyone use MySpace anymore even though in its day it was a great site?
We would be very interested to find out your preffered social network and where you think it is lacking?
