>none of my personal friends have more than zero facebook accounts

There's no way this is true

It could be trivially true for someone with zero personal friends :D

It can be true, I think we get used to the idea that most people are connected but if you have friends over the age of, say, 60 it's fairly common for them not have internet access. In the UK, at least?

Why not? In my friend circle only one guy has a facebook account, he created it to talk to a girl he met and i don't think he uses it anymore or even deleted it.

Not sure why that's so unbelievable.
