Social media: It’s not just for kids. Adults with profiles on social media
platform up from 8% to 35%. Adults are a larger percentage of US
population than teens. So there are more adults on social
media platforms than teens.

You’ve done this forever
Social networking isn’t new… Telling a friend about a good movie. Sharing pictures of your child, pet or
vacation. Catching up on gossip at work. Social Networking is “reaching out to
people you know to share ideas, experiences and information.”

Where is all of this going? A report released last year from M:Metrics, a mobile-
media research firm, found that Americans browsed the Web an average of 4.6 hours a month from their smartphones, an 89% increase from 2007.
A May study from consulting firm Gravitytank found that app-enabled phone owners spend an average of two hours a day on their devices, with nearly 40% of that time dedicated to app use.
By 2013, smartphones will have doubled their share of the handset market, accounting for 20% of all cellphones, according to market research company In-Stat.
