"May 2009 data from Nielsen Online show that people continue to spend more time on social networking and blog sites than ever before."
Other highlights: Twitter flat lined. Facebook continues to chug. But Don't overlook the MySpace video views - 116M streams is huge.
Later:: Time spent at newspaper sites sank. Coincidence?
The Nielsen Company graph shows people as spending over 3x's longer on Twitter from just a year ago. That one is evident and though it's flat lined it's still strong. Hadn't thought much about MySpace for awhile, but that's an impressive stat with 116 Million video views.
There's no coincidence on the Newspaper subscription base shrinking. We dropped our local subscription to the Greenfield Recorder since the paper shrunk, went up in price (declining subscriptions), has dated news (PR release not showing up in two months on #WMTU), and needs to move into the digital era. They are working that way, but they started to late and hit their learning curve.
