> I'm 39 ... Facebook to me is like General Electric, a bastion of day to day life

I'm in my early 50s. None of social media made any sense to me, and I never engaged in any of it. Email seemed (and still seems) to be perfectly adequate for keeping in touch with friends and family.

Mid 30s here. For me, fb is an easy way to connect with new people. Particularly useful when traveling or in a new school. You search by name, confirm the photo is of the person you're looking for, and bam, they're in your address book.

The rest of it - constant updates about mundane things - in other words, the whole news feed - can be ignored.
