Teens love the Internet

Pew Research measures just how much :)

Quote:

Content creation by teenagers continues to grow, with 64% of online teenagers ages 12 to 17 engaging in at least one type of content creation, up from 57% of online teens in 2004.

Girls continue to dominate most elements of content creation. Some 35% of all teen girls blog, compared with 20% of online boys, and 54% of wired girls post photos online compared with 40% of online boys. Boys, however, do dominate one area - posting of video content online. Online teen boys are nearly twice as likely as online girls (19% vs. 10%) to have posted a video online somewhere where someone else could see it.

We need to keep the teenagers from the internet! Where is the outrage!? WHERE? JAPAN WILL OWN OUR SOULS WITH THEIR LECHEROUS ANIMATIONS!

That sounds about right. No nod to gaming, though. I'd definitely say that's a big part of internet actions.

Yup, me too. The study seems to completely ignore WoW or FFIX or even game forums.

Interesting article.

Most of my time online is spent on MSN chatting to friends, playing online games or watching videos on Youtube.
