Abstract :
The paper presents a characterization of the comments included in the user profiles of a popular social networking site. Some parameters are defined, which express comments composition in terms of length, language used, and external resources accessed. From the analysis of comments a model is derived, which reflects three different types of users. The behavior of users in terms of the language used is also derived.
