Blogging is growing among the over-30s ¬- but on the decrease among younger internet users, a new report has revealed.

The study, which was carried out in America, shows that 12 to 17-year-olds are switching from blogging to simpler, more mobile forms of communication.

While the numbers of over-30s bloggers has risen from 7% in 2007 to 11% in 2009, youngsters who blog has halved to 14% since 2006.

The study also found that more young people – 55% of 18 to 29-year-olds and 27% of 12 to 17-year-olds – are also accessing the internet from their mobile phones, increasing the need for brevity.
