Recently the Pew Research Center found that 95% of teens ages 12-17 were using the Internet. But their statistics found that a significantly smaller percentage of teens were using video functions like chatting, uploading video and streaming live video footage.
The study did find that 80% of teens using the Internet used social networking sites, and video use by teens on sites like Facebook and Twitter was much more popular than teens who didn’t have social networking accounts.
Differences in household incomes played a factor into teens’ video habits; the study found teens from high-income families were more likely to video chat than those from low-income households.
