Adam Curry celebrates John C. Dvorak's birthday, noting that Skype and Plaxo report his age as 102 or 107. Dvorak explains that users often select the earliest possible birth year on social media platforms like Facebook and MySpace to protect privacy or bypass age restrictions. This behavior leads to skewed statistical analysis where the average user age appears much older than reality.
