Teens Experiencing Facebook Fatigue ⇢

One in five (19%) teenagers who have a @Facebook account no longer visit Facebook or are using it less. 

About 1/3 of those leaving are doing so because their parents or other “older people” are now on Facebook.

And, so, we can extrapolate that as even more old fogeys come on-board, even more kids will defect. Where are they going?
