Final Thoughts• Teen SNS use is on the rise, but Twitter is not
the tool of choice
• Cell phones leap frog connectivity roadblocks for low income, minority teens (and adults)
• Teens are not monolithic – so a multi-pronged approach is prudent
• Changes suggest a move towards mobile…
• …but teens do not always embrace the newest thing
