The number of adults signing up to social networking sites has almost doubled in the last two years, according to new Ofcom research.
It reveals that 38 per cent of UK internet users now have a social networking site profile – up from 22 per cent in 2007.
At the same time people are also becoming more cautious about sharing their personal information online.
Three quarters of those with a social networking profile now say that it can only be seen by family and friends – up from 48 per cent in 2007.
