The survey also finds that a majority of teens, 56 percent, use IM to share photos, while 33 percent share music and video files over IM.
Nearly one-third of teens, or 30 percent, say they can’t imagine living without IM. That sentiment is shared by 36 percent of teen girls, and 23 percent of teen boys. For adults, the addicted masses reach 17 percent.
