And this information was in early 2009, things have changed since and there is more information since. You should never take data from one place ever to prove or disprove a point. I just used that to show some data.

And folks that were said to be the largest group are not as big as the people that are older. Again I also said the average, which means it does not factor in everything. Averages can be skewed if you have numbers from one extreme to the other. I also just finished taking a Methods course and there are all kinds of way to analyze data. And you would have to take more than who holds an "account" to say who is using something more. I can own a car, but if I do not drive it that information is important if I am studying how many folks drive. My claim has always been usage as far as the vast majority of people I know personally that have an account are older and those individuals use it quite often.

Peace

Sure is an interesting way to try to talk your way out of something. You said "the majority of people that have an account", which to most of us would mean "users". I agree that there are different ways to analyze data, but this data is pretty cut and dry. The majority of Facebook users (people with an account) are under 35.

My pie graph was from January 2010. If you can come up with something more recent that proves your point, then by all means post it.

Rut is also a football Back Judge. There's the snap... and it's an obvious passing play.

Watch him back-peddle.

One thing I noticed on the video is that after the first dead ball push by the Desoto player, the assistant coach gave the traditional arms open "my player didn't do anything".
