Facebook Study

This study was an informal survey of 90 Facebook users of varying ages and gender. As noted, this survey is preliminary only and needs to be validated by a larger study of randomly-selected users.

The survey was conducted through the online site surveymonkey.com. The users were solicited in a variety of ways, including through my own Facebook contacts, through LinkedIn groups such as Facebook.com and Tweeple, through personal contacts with a request to forward the survey link to others, through Twitter, and through craigslist ads posted in various large cities across the country.
