Answer: Married people
A report published last week by Science journal found that men are more influential on Facebook than women, and married people are the most influential of all. Time Healthland reported that those who report their relationship status as “it’s complicated” are most susceptible to influence and have little influence on others.

I think if you look at the vast majority of influential people out there contributing to society, the last thing they are actively doing or being involved with is Facebook. It's really a bit of an adolescent type of thing - gossipy, etc. Sure, it has it's place, especially with some organizations - I get all that. But who on the personal side of things is spending time on Facebook and not embarrased to admit it?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. That I'm so "weak-minded" that someone I don't even know, or only know through another media (TV, Radio, Magazines, Movies, etc) can influence me to (fill in the blank) is incomprehensible to me, regardless of what social media they're using.
Ditto!
