A new report by Frank N. Magid Associates, which is reported by Bloomberg says that the use of Facebook among young people aged 13 to 17-years in the US fell from 95 percent in 2012 to 94 percent in 2013 and to 88 percent in 2014, while Twitter rose by 2 percent, to a total of 48 percent in the same period.
Although not very significant decline empowers Facebook downward trend in demography the most important social network - the young, who have the greatest potential to increase the popularity of the site.
A strong reason why teenagers are abandoning Facebook was the perception that the social network is not reliable. Only 9 percent of respondents described Facebook as "safe" or "reliable", while 30 percent of them used the same words to Pinterest.
Facebook slow decline in popularity among teenagers is nothing new of course. A similar study earlier this month concluded that Facebook just was not "cool", while another report published in October found that social network use among 13 to 19-year-olds had fallen so far dramatic: 72 percent respectively to 45 percent, from spring to autumn 2014.
