It appears social media is being used in the most private room in our homes.

A new Nielsen study found that 32% of 18-to-24 year-old’s use social networking sites while in the bathroom.

That includes sending tweets or updating their Facebook status while on the toilet.

The study also found that people overall are spending more time on social media, thanks in large part to the growing popularity of smart phones.
