For teens, why is Facebook like your DVD Player?

What’s the deal with teens and Facebook? Part of teens’ nature is they are consistently inconsistent. So, while teens are “over” Facebook they still use it (http://tinyurl.com/q352rp2). For teens, there is no question that Facebook is not as cool, (or as used) as it once was—and not nearly as cool as Instagram, Snapchat, or Twitter (http://tinyurl.com/m3z446y)–but it is still a source and resource in their lives. It’s like our DVD or Blue Ray players – we can’t get rid of them quite yet, they’re still (occasionally) useful and we have a great deal invested in them!
