UnSunny Side of the Tweet: Survey Finds Public Is Unsocial Media

Image via CrunchBaseThe Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project found a paltry 8 percent of Americans who surf the Internet use social network & microblogger Twitter.

Surveys conducted in October and November by Princeton Survey Research Associates International determined that minority Internet users were twice as likely as white Web surfers to tweet. Likewise, urbanites are more avid Twitter users than their rural counterparts.

"TUOL" is happy to boil down the survey results for committed Twitter users: "Y U Tweet? No 1 Cares. LOL."
