STUDY: 80% of Twitter Users Are All About Me

Rutgers University Professors Mor Naaman and Jeffrey Boase set out to analyze the content and characteristics of social media activity.  After dissecting over 3,000 tweets from more than 350 Twitter users’ status updates the professors concluded that 80% of users are “meformers,” or “Me Now” status updaters.  The rest (20%) are informers who use the channels to share informational updates like links news articles.
