Another great chart to challenge people’s preconceptions! Hurrah!

And then I looked at it a bit harder. Social networks and blogs lumped together? That’s…not very useful. It implies that people want a significant amount of their content delivered in a social manner, but doesn’t give us any clear picture of how relationship-driven that delivery actually is. Hummph. 

Luckily, there’s [more detail in the original blog post](http://blog.nielsen.com/nielsenwire/online_mobile/what-americans-do-online-social-media-and-games-dominate-activity/), although not enough to really tease apart what’s going on here. The mobile use pie chart is worth a squint, though.
