In bed with Facebook

It’s 7 AM. Do you know where your friends are? You do, because you already checked Facebook on your mobile straight from the comfort of your bed. Retrevo, the consumer electronics shopping site, has surveyed 1000 social media users in the U.S. about when, where and how much time they spend on social networks. Unsurprisingly, a lot of us check and/or update Facebook during the night or as soon as we wake up. iPhone owners and those under 25 are more likely to check with their virtual peeps before getting out of bed, but still, for about one out of every five people, Facebook is part of the typical morning routine.

Below are the six charts that show the interesting results of Retrevo’s Gadgetology Report about social media “addiction”. If you want to see where you fit in these charts, just answer these four simple questions for yourself:

1. Do you check/update Facebook in bed during the night or as soon as you wake up?
2. How frequently do you check the site during the day?
3. Are you under or over 25 years old?
4. Do you own an iPhone?
