En stor del av användarna av mikrobloggingtjänsten Twitter består en äldre åldersgrupp. Enligt Nielsen utgör åldersgruppen 35 – 49 år 42% av besökarna.
Twitterers (a.k.a. Tweeters) are not primarily teens or college students as you might expect. In fact, in February the largest age group on Twitter was 35-49; with nearly 3 million unique visitors, comprising almost 42 percent of the site’s audience. We found that the majority of people visit Twitter.com while at work, with 62 percent of the combo unique audience accessing the site from work only versus 35 percent that accessed it from home only.
När det gäller Facebook så är gruppen 18 – 25 år fortfarande den största åldersgruppen men tillväxten sker framför allt inom gruppen 35 – 49 år.
