— Seventy-eight percent of teenage girls use social media to keep in touch with friends.

— Almost all of those reported being in “constant contact.” They use texting, Facebook, iChat, AIM and other social media services.

— Eighty percent prefer to share information via one-to-one communication (texting or phone calls) over “broadcast” platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.
