According to a new report from the Pew Internet & American LifeEight Project, of the eight percent of the U.S. online population that uses Twitter today, the most active users are African-Americans and Latinos.

While only 2% say they use it on a “typical day,” the demographics that make up Twitter users are interesting. Young adults aged 18-29 are “significantly more likely” to use Twitter, while African-American and Latino users are more than twice as likely to use it than whites, and urban residents are twice as more likely to use Twitter than rural residents.
