Most Used Web Products - Business Insider

Tumblr beat out Facebook in a recent survey of what teenagers use online.

Tumblr is a blogging platform that lets users post things like text, images, videos, links, and audio.

But as Branch co-founder Josh Miller recently wrote, teenagers seem to be using Tumblr mostly to look at photos from celebrities whom they aspire to be.

Inspired by Miller's post,?Y Combinator partner Garry Tan surveyed a bunch of teenagers and young adults to find out which services they use regularly.?

With help from YC-backed Survata, Tan surveyed a total of 1,038 people from two different groups: people aged 13-18, and 19-25. He asked them to report how often?they use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and Snapchat.?

Snapchat, the mobile app that lets you take self-destructing photos, is the newest of all those services, but given Snapchat's explosive growth, it was obviously worth asking about.?

Here's what he found:

  • Tumblr is the most used site. 59% of all respondents reported using Tumblr regularly, while only 54% reported using Facebook regularly.
  • Facebook is still doing well among kids. 55% of those aged 13-18 reported using the social network regularly.
  • Snapchat appeals more to the younger generation, with 13% of those aged 13-18 reporting using it regularly.?
  • Only 4% of respondents aged 19-25 reported using Snapchat regularly.

Head on over to Tan's blog to read more about the survey.
