The tabular formats illustrate how many age brackets used various digital networking platforms in Australia within 2011.
Generally, it is conspicuous that the using these apps placed heavy emphasis on younger generations, as opposed to that of the oldest group. Additionally, the 18-34 and 35-45 age groups represented at the premirer positions over the designated time frame.
An initial investigation into the age cohorts of 18-34 and 35-49 unveils occupying majorities. The 18-34 age group marked the central use of Facebook and YouTube, each a staggering roughly 30% of total users, which was slightly higher than the corresponding one of the 35-29 age bracket, which accounted for 28% and 26%, respectively. Meanwhile, a shift was observed in the twitter category as the former was 11% lower than that of the latter which retrieved its pinnacle.
Further scrutiny delving into the remainders reveals different disparities. The statistics of the 10-17 age group made up one-fifth of all three categories with the most impressive figure chronicled in YouTube, whereas the 50-64 age group hovered relatively under 14%. Last but not least, the oldest demographic was inconsequential, ranging from 5% to 10%, remaining at the bottom of the survey.
