Since it's very evident forums are dying a slow death, and Social Networks are all the rage, I'm willing to bet a vast amount of the users here use Social Media in one form or another. So with that I created this poll to find out just who uses what.

For me personally, I use Facebook the most and Twitter every once in a while to bitch or tell a Congressmen something that needs to be passed or make a consumer complaint to a company. That's about as far as I go with Twitter.

Poll is multiple choice. Pick all that apply.

On FB to keep up with people in other countries. All people I know in real life, unlike here.

I'm only on FB to keep up with what's going on in my neighborhood. Other than that, I use LinkedIn (but I never check it/haven't updated it in years). I have no real desire to constantly get updates on people I don't care about.

I'm not sure if I would classify reddit as social networking, but I do waste a lot of time on it.

Mostly Facebook and Reddit. I do have a Twitter and Linkedin account but don't really go on those much.

For me, Facebook is mostly to keep in touch with IRL friends/family/coworkers so to me it's not something that replaces forums, but clearly it does, as forums in general do see way less traffic now days.

FB I hardly post updates myself, read more than post.
Twitter I never post, just follow & read, but mostly when I'm on the can.
Reddit I will post sometimes.

I have found a lot of long lost friends on facebook and overall enjoyed the experience. I have a twitter account but mostly to watch for SpaceX announcements and look at trump's tweets.

I use Facebook so I can easily keep in touch with family back on the Gulf Coast. I'm Facebook friends with a few other people, mostly ex-coworkers. I've got a few people on there who were friends when I was a kid. I don't post very much though, just enough to let everyone know I'm still alive.

Voted none. I'm occasionally on reddit, but that's just a forum, not a social network as it's generally understood.

This thread reminds me of a conversation I overheard in a bar between a couple of 60-somethings.

THIS forum may be dying a slow agonizing death, and it's been rather painful to watch, but there are many other healthy, active forums where everyone isn't either elderly or a social misfit.

Twitter sparingly for hot deals and to complain communicate with companies.

Otherwise I have no use for social media sites.
