Social Media Use Stats

This Infographic Compares Habits of Ad Professionals and Normal Users

To humor all those in the marketing industry, the 'How Do We Use Social Media' infographic is hilarious in comparing ad professionals and normal users in their habits on the Web.

Given the statistics featured, there are two types of people in this world: those who leverage all forms of social media to the fullest extent (advertising work junkies) and those who use it leisurely, lazily and not nearly as frequently (normal people). It is interesting to see how both groups are active on different platforms like Pintrest, Instagram and Google+ and opinionated about online marketing campaigns.

Although these two groups use social media for different ends, these networks are still a dominating part in many people's lives.
