Hi. You are right, of course. There’s a link at the top to the details on that. Here it is again: http://nmc.itdevworks.com/?page_id=585 On that page there’s also a link to the actual study questions.

As you’ll see, it was a very small, informal study. Which is why I give the caveat that these result can only be considered preliminary and would need to be validated. I’d love to be able to do a larger study, as there seems to be a dearth of this kind of details analysis. But, I don’t have the means to provide that.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t see how many responses you received to the survey and how you targeted respondents. I know you said the results were preliminary but this information is critical as it helps the reader determine if the results are statistically significant or not.

Just wanted to thank you for your post. I’ve often wondered how various deomographic data influences Facebook use. Thanks for all your efforts! I look forward to reading your next installment!

Thanks! I’m glad you’re enjoying them. I’m having fun indulging myself in the research. Hopefully I can get the second part of the Facebook study in another week. Next week, I hope to post some of the results from my Twitter survey, if you’re also interested in Twitter.
