To find out more about social media, I created a survey using Survey
Monkey and posted the link on my Facebook page and also emailed the survey to
friends and family from back home. I asked the participants the following questions:
1. What social networking site do you use the most?
2. How often do you use this social networking site?
3. Do you see the site you’re using maintaining its popularity or being replaced by something better?
5. Do you have friends who don’t use a social networking site, and if so, what’s their reasoning for not doing so?
Upon evaluating the answers, I found that the majority of people:
1. Use Facebook
2. Use social networks every day
2. Use social networks every day
3. Think their social networking site will eventually be outshined by a
new invention
4. Don’t always feel safe on their site but use it anyways
5. Don’t have friends who don’t have social network accounts
Although I tried to avoid having only Facebook users respond to my survey by emailing this survey out instead of just posting it on Facebook, 33 out of the 34 responders claimed to use Facebook as their main source for social networking. This just comes to show Facebook’s popularity and the constant usage despite its privacy concerns.
