If anyone were to ask me to choose, I'll pick Twitter over Facebook. Anytime.
Or so, the article really describes what I think of those two social network, in a more proper sentencing and so forth.
"Clearly, for many people Twitter is like the culture. It is, when you get right down to it, a near-total waste of your time.
And if you think about it, most of what's said in this world is a waste of time for almost everybody else."
Facebook: "its essential flaws - the endless privacy violation, the cumbersome social expectations, the ease with which the word "friend" becomes meaningless..."
Twitter: "is essential and useless, entertaining and revolting, thrilling and banal. It is an echo chamber."
Facebook: I only look forward to the photos uploaded by friends and sharing statuses that can be shared without the need to meet expectations. Okay, so the birthday and events reminders are just the extra pluses...
Twitter: The all-I-can-blab-about medium. No one cares what I say because the choice is theirs - to follow and read my useless/useful musings or just don't follow at all which will save you from the ongoing slash of my random tweets. It has more freedom to whomever I want to talk with, be it unknown people with exact same interest or satirists behind famous characters. News tend to travel faster here too, but you just have to know whomever appropriate to follow in order to get that.
Seeing that I have 268 followers is not bad enough despite the fact that I've tweet so much, with over 20,000 tweets.
