Colby Cosh links to a dating website that actually provides useful photography information:
oh, also — iPhone users have more sex.
File this under “icebreakers, MacWorld ’11”. Finally, statistical proof that iPhone users aren’t just getting fucked by Apple:
The chart pretty much speaks for itself; I’ll just say that the numbers for all three brands are for 30 year-olds, so it’s not a matter of older, more experienced people preferring one phone to another. We found this data as part of our general camera-efficacy analysis: we crossed all kinds of user behaviors with the camera models and found we had data on the number of sexual partners for 9,785 people with smart phones.
Okay, I’ve posted the funny bit. The rest of the article actually does have useful photography tips, especially if you’re a user of dating websites.
No just more sex, but more sexual partners. Ergo… iPhone and BB users are statistically more likely to get STIs? Doesn’t that ad kinda write itself?

Ads from both perspectives just write themselves. Want to market the iPhone to the under-25’s? Just show the graph. Want to market Android phones to over-40’s with preteen children? Just show the graph.
Market segmentation, of a sort.
