While you’ll still bump into your share of people who prefer to abstain from maintaining a social media presence, there are a whole lot of us signed up and freely sharing inspirational quotes wrongly attributed to famous people. According to a new study looking at adults who use the Internet in the U.S. (81% of the entire population), a new study found that 71% have a Facebook account, which means roughly 58% of all American adults are on the social media site.

Facebook remains the most popular social media site in the United States, according to the study by Pew Research Center, “Social Media Update 2014.”

“For the first time, more than half of all online adults 65 and older (56%) use Facebook. This represents 31% of all seniors,” the findings say.
