Galloping around Facebook is no longer a game for the young.

With each passing year, the percentage of U.S. seniors who actively participate in the social media juggernaut continues to skyrocket. This infographic from www.designinfographics.com shows exponential increases in the percentage of Facebook users who also get a discount when they go out to eat.
