Facebook attracts an older crowd too

Web 2.0 is coming home to older users as Facebook’s demographics show that for example, women over 55 are one of its fastest growing groups.

Not surprising as Facebook has become the solution to a problem people didn’t really think they had – how to keep in touch with friends and family without expending a great deal of time and money.

200 million users currently and growing at a tremendous pace, it also wouldn’t surprise me to see FB get targeted by governments for various reasons – reigning in/keeping an eye on their citizens, law enforcement, propaganda, information dispersal, etc.
