Teens and social media

Again, it's not new, but I stumbled across an interesting Pew Research survey of teens 12-17 showing that 64 percent of online teens are actively involved in social media. I would suspect that college students would be higher since social media usage rises as teens get older. Twenty-nine percent of them have their own blog (35 percent of girls; 20 percent of boys). This isn't telling us a whole lot we don't already know, but we should continue to grow our online options. The study is at http://www.pewinternet.org/PPF/r/230/report_display.asp
