You don't need to convince me aye but alot users use mobile phone to change or check their facebook status. You can do that while having a drink or clubbing really.
Twitter even worse, it's mostly done by mobile phone nway.
Hence why I believe they are more accepted or higher on the "social ladder" compared to online gaming, where you have to stay at home (more or less).
Saying "I got got 500 friends on facebook" will make you more popular then saying "I killed 500 enemies yesterday and was 1st on the server" ...
Now, don't get me wrong. Both mean nothing to me and I'm merely using them as an example as how it would be perceived, most likely.
