Kids on the Web

January 8th, 2007

The Pew Internet and American Life project has been out asking teenagers about their experiences online.

Just over half of the “online” teens have created a personal profile at a social networking site, not surprisingly the vast majority of them at MySpace.

And almost half of those kids using a social networking site visit one or more times a day.

However, the statistic in the study I found most interesting is that two-thirds of them say that they limit access to their profile to friends and/or family.

Maybe most of our students are a little more web savvy than we’ve given them credit for.
