Odnoklassniki is most popular social networking site in Moldova
Two in three Moldovan Internet users have an account with the Russian social network service Odnoklassniki and, according to an opinion poll conducted by the Chisinau IMAS-INC Institute, this website is used by 63 percent of Moldova's net surfers, Info-Prim Neo reports.
Following far behind is Facebook, with 15 percent, and Faces Moldova and Vkontakte, with 10 percent each.
The poll shows that 54 percent of the users of social network services are in the age group 15-29 years, and 24 percent in the age group 30-44 years. 48 percent of the respondents are unemployed.
The poll authors indicate that the social networking 'fever' has affected Moldova as well – 25 percent of the current users have opened accounts in recent months. A highlight is that there is a tendency for adult people (30-44 years), people from rural areas and people on low incomes to become increasingly attracted by such sites.
The poll was conducted from April 15 to May 3 on a sample of 1,106 people aged 15 or older from 75 locations of the country.
