Generations Online: Charts

This is a series of charts related to the “Generations Online in 2009” report released on Jan. 28, 2009. For example, the “activity pyramid” shows how the vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search, and while there are exceptions, older generations are less likely than younger users to engage in more advanced online entertainment and social media. You can also download these slides in PowerPoint or as a PDF.
