NEW YORK: A third of young people regularly access Facebook and Twitter via their mobile, a new report has found.
The study, published by mobile research firm CCS Insight, found that access to social networking sites was driving the take-up of mobile internet services, BBC reported.
Facebook is more popular than Bebo, MySpace and Twitter combined, it found.
Its study – into mobile usage among 16 to 35 year olds – also found that the service most youngsters wanted on their phones was the BBC iPlayer.
The suggestion that Facebook is more popular than Twitter chimes with a recently published Morgan Stanley report on internet and mobile usage.
Compiled by a 15-year-old intern, the report said that teenagers favoured Facebook over Twitter.
“Teenagers do not use Twitter. They realise that no-one is viewing their profile, so their tweets are pointless,” Matthew Robson wrote in the report.
He echoes the words of CCS Insight analyst Paulo Pescatore.
“Forget music and video downloads, social networking is where it’s at and Facebook is king of the hill,” he said.
