Great statistics for those who are interested in the usage trends of Social Networking websites.

The only social networks studied that didn’t have more women than men in the 18-24 year old group were venerable old LinkedIn (where incidentally the 25-34 age group was tops) and a site called Perfspot.

Other highlights:

• Women ages 14-24 dominate activity on social networks and have more friends than men of the same ages.
• Men ages 35+ are more active and have more friends than women of the same ages.
• The average social network user has 2-25 friends.
• There are a disproportionately high number of 69 year olds across various social networks. (my guess is that it’s the most popular ‘fake age’)

Cuil.com was a hot topic yesterday.

Follow up to my earlier post on search engines, I am not sure if I can describe this as “diversity of the Web” … well, it is surely entertaining.
