Young adults and how they spend their time online
(Posted by francois to: communities | marketing )Susan Mernit has a a great post on her blog with her notes from a talk she gave at the American Press Institute. It describes the online habits of the Millennial Generation (18-35 yo).
It was interesting for me to see how many well educated editors had never heard from services like LinkedIn, Bloglines, Technorati, Orkut, and a bunch of other things that young people use and that some of us take for granted. Adoption for all this new stuff is still pretty low...
One thing that I did not see on the list but was expecting is online gaming (both computer and online-enabled game consoles)...
