| This is so odd to me. I can't help but think that people who cite this study and studies that highlight the "decline" of Facebook are simply Facebook haters for one reason or another. They are just clamoring for a reason to hate on Facebook. Maybe they're just jealous of the Zuck. It doesn't matter if teens aren't on Facebook. Why? Facebook, just like every other tech company right now, is taking operations global. If they lose 3 million teens in America they'll gain 3 million in Japan or Africa or China or Russia or India or etc. Also, ultimately, nobody seems to be asking the question, why do we need teens to use Facebook? Are they perhaps converting later in life? Are teens not using Facebook and then becoming adults and still not using Facebook? Do we want to monetize minors? Are they even really worth monetizing? I'm not saying the loss of teens of Facebook is a useless metric to follow, I'm rather asking people to answer more relevant question. The more people talk about the decline of Facebook due to declining teen numbers, the more likely other people will think you have some sort of jealousy thing going for the Zuck. Honestly, these numbers tell you virtually nothing about "teen migration" away from Facebook. I feel like they're move to buy Snapchat was just to shut everybody about this teen bullshit. Stop hatin' and get your facts straight. |
