Instagram more popular among teenagers than Facebook, Twitter: Study

A new survey by an investment bank and
asset management firm, Piper Jaffray, revealed that 9 out
of 10 American teenagers use social media and consider
Instagram as the most popular site.
In the survey, analysts examined how kids' social media
preferences have changed over the last six months. They
found that Instagram has become even more popular, with
76% of teens currently saying they use it — up 7% since
last spring, CBS News reported.
Twitter ranked second, used by 59% of teens. Facebook
came in third, but saw its popularity decline significantly.
Just 45% of teens surveyed said they use the world's
biggest social network; its popularity has plummeted by
27% since last spring.
Pinterest and Tumblr each claimed a little over 20%.
Another 20% of teens said they use other social networks,
not named in the survey but likely including some popular
anonymous messaging services and the disappearing-
message app Snapchat.
