The first four reasons why they don't use twitter give some insight:
1) It's lame
2) My friends don't use it
3) I don't understand it
4) It doesn't help me do anything
The rest of the reasons are less than 15%.
- hughprime 17y agoPretty sensible reasons there. I can't see much point in a teenager using twitter. Teenagers spend every weekday at the same school as most of their friends anyway, and at any given time their friends are doing pretty much the same thing they are. "Sitting in class. Bored." It's only when you get older and your friends get a bit more diverse and spread out and more likely to be engaging in interesting activities that twitter becomes less dull.
- Estragon 17y agoThese are the reasons I don't use it. Until now, my near total incomprehension of the phenomenon was making me feel old...
- kiba 17y agoAs a teenager crossing into the adult twilight zone, I mostly used twitter to do: 1. What the heck are certain developers coding? 2. Shorthand "RSS" of content update 3. Keep up with cool startups/projects 4. A microblog for my game projects. Using it as to keep up with what friends are doing or update what the heck I am doing for my life atm? Banal and boring. I would not use it like that.
