New Pew Study on ... Twitter

The new study from Pew Research Center finds that 8% of online Americans use Twitter.

According to their summary, some of the groups who are notable for their relatively high levels of Twitter use include:
  • Young adults – Internet users ages 18-29 are significantly more likely to use Twitter than older adults.
  • African-Americans and Latinos – Minority internet users are more than twice as likely to use Twitter as are white internet users.
  • Urbanites – Urban residents are roughly twice as likely to use Twitter as rural dwellers.
