Twitter Up, Facebook Down For American Teens

New study reveals dropping interest in Facebook for teens.

Clicking "like"? You must be in your 20s.

Teenagers are Facebooking less and less, with the percentage of teens using Facebook dropping for the third-straight year, according to reports.

Bloomberg brings us word of a new review that shows 88 percent of social media users between the ages of 13 and 17 are Facebook users. That's some serious market saturation -- but when it comes to growth, Twitter is winning.

Twitter is now used among 48 percent of teens, up two points from the prior year, according to Frank N. Magid Associates.

Facebook was used by 95 percent of teens in 2012, a seven-point drop over the three-year period.
