"Ofcom research shows 5% drop in 15 to 24-year-olds using social networking sites"

What sort of conclusion can you draw from a single 5% change in data? What's the noise level in that sample?

Isn't that a 5% drop of 15-24 yo _online_ that are using SNS. So an increase in absolute users would create a decrease in %.
