New studies show that young adults prefer Facebook to blogging. The reasons are obvious.
firstly....
1. Instant Feedback
On Facebook, no matter what you post on your wall, you’re likely to get a response within minutes. No waiting, no working. Why wouldn’t this appeal to teens? They say something, and somebody responds. People are listening. They have a voice.
2. A Positif respone
On Facebook, most everyone reading your wall is someone you actually know. Real friends (if not cyber-friends). They’re there because they already like you. You don’t need to win their approval. If you want to post “I had eggs for breakfast this morning,” chances are you’ll get responses like “I LOVE eggs!,” and “I had eggs yesterday!” on Facebook.
3. Conservations
On Facebook, it’s easy to follow a conversation. Conversations are indented and easy to read through, easy to join in on, and easy to go back to later. Teens aren’t interested in throwing their thoughts out to the black void of the internet, they want to have a conversation with their friends, and Facebook makes it easy for them to do that.
4. Easy Multi-media
Facebook makes it extremely easy for teens to share photos, videos, drawings, music, etc. They are all in one place, they are easy to scroll through, and they are easy to comment on. Enough said.
Facebook allows you to really get to know the people you are interacting with. Just another Facebook feature that has tons of appeal for teens.
As far as teens are concerned, Facebook is really built for them. I’m not at all surprised that young people are Facebook fans. It seems obvious to me. But, please let me know what you think! Are you a teen who knows I’m wrong? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Facebook is on your Mind Every Time. You wake up at night from sleep, thinking that you might have received a Comment on your post or photograph on Facebook.
