Facebook! Wash your mouth out with soap.10 Jan 2012 10:04 am

fuck.jpgWhen it comes to social media and your career, you should curse at your own risk.

I recently got some interesting statistics on profanity and social networking sites. Turns out 47 percent of Facebook users have cursed on their walls, according to social media tracking company Reppler.

I wasn’t totally surprised having read a lot of cussing on Facebook and Twitter, and maybe having dropped an “F” bomb or two.

The Reppler data also found:

* 80% of our users who have profanity on their Facebook Wall have at least one post/comment with profanity from a friend.
* 56% of the posts/comments with profanity on a user’s Facebook Wall come from friends.
* Users are twice as likely to use profanity in a post on their Facebook Wall, versus a comment. Whereas friends are twice as likely to use profanity in a comment on a user’s Facebook Wall, versus a post.
* The most common profane word is derivations of the “f-word”. The second most common profane word is derivations of the word “sh*t”. ”B*tch” is a distant third.

And guess who curses the most? (more…)
