A recent report by Ofcom called Social Networking : A quantitative and qualitative research report into attitudes, behaviours and use has identified five different types of users of Social Networking users, they are:
- Alpha socialisers - They use sites in intense short bursts to meet new people
- Attention seekers - Most likely to post photos and custome profiles
- Followers - Want to keep up with their peers
- Faithfuls - Use the site to rekindle old relationships
- Functionals - Use sites for a particular purpose
Now the Ofcom report is massive so I wont suggest anyone reads it from cover to cover but some of the headlines contained within the report are interesting.
