Participation in Real-Time Social Media Increased 20% in 2010
Social media consultancy Trendstream released a report Tuesday that suggests participation in the social web is shifting from a place to create personal content to a place to share professional content in real time. The report is part of an ongoing web study called the Global Web Index, which surveyed a total of 51,000 consumers globally at three points between July 2009 and September 2010.

Participation in real-time social networks and microblogs, however, both grew by 20%.
