Social Networking – not just for kids

Pew Internet and American Life released a study this week on adult use of social networking tools. Did you know that the percentage of adults with profiles on social networking site went from 8 percent in 2005 to 35 percent in 2008?

Younger online adults are much more likely than their older counterparts to use social networks, with 75% of adults 18-24 using these networks, compared to just 7% of adults 65 and older. At its core, use of online social networks is still a phenomenon of the young but that’s changing.
