Social Media as a whole has taken off in a big way, but the 'Who Likes What' infographic takes it to a new level by dividing the popularity between ages, income and genders to let you know, literally, who is liking what.
Focusing mainly on Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, the infographic splits up the demographics simply. Finding that MySpace has predominantly women, Twitter the highest earners and Facebook with the most older users, it puts an interesting new take on the social media we all know and love.
Since MySpace has been on the decline for years now, it has become irrelevant to many. However, that Facebook is getting older might be a sign of the younger generation moving onto something else, or the older generation getting savvy with the Social Media movement.
