Facebook Statistics

Some interesting statistics found on http://www.insidefacebook.com/2008/01/02/2008-statistics-on-american-politics-on-facebook/

 

  • 8% of the adults in the U.S. are on Facebook.
  • 47% of the adults in Washington, DC are on Facebook.
  • Of the American adults on Facebook, 40.9% call themselves liberal, 28.4% moderate, and 30.7% conservative.

 

It is always obvious to me, that most tech-savvy sites like Facebook, Digg, etc... are going to be over whelming liberal. Too bad a 8% sample is a very poor bias sample of the population of the U.S. in this case.
