Older Adults Among Newer Members on Social Networking Sites

"...social networking is attracting new — and older — devotees, according to a Pew Research Center analysis released Wednesday. It finds that 35% of adult Internet users now have a profile on at least one social networking site. And among online adults ages 35-44, 30% have a profile. Although the share of online adults with a profile quadrupled from 8% in 2005, Pew found that the young are still more likely to use these sites. Among 18-24-year-olds, 75% of those who go online have a profile."
