> I was recently hanging out at some nightlife spots, casually talking to random millennials at bars and such and realized that nobody was using Facebook or Twitter. They were all using SnapChat, almost compulsively. (emphasis added) I am nearly 40 and don't want my nightlife posted on Facebook where my ex-wife, parents, child, or potential employers might see it, either. Why do you expect millennials to behave differently? I can't speak for all millennials, but I am currently attending university and have many millennial friends and contacts. Almost to a person, they all have Facebook. The only two people I can think of that don't are a 30-year-old and a guy in his 50's who is a conspiracy theorist. Facebook is used as a way to add soft social contacts as well as to coordinate and interact with a larger group of people. Facebook is the "public" social face, with things like Snapchat offering a more private face. And I don't think that difference is specific to millennials. My 50-something ex-girlfriend and my 23-year-old current girlfriend use these services almost identically, as do I.
