Facebook because you could expand further, Twitter so far seem limited even though there are some apps. I think one day will merge together, Twitter would make a nice little addon to Facebook.
That's a very good way of putting it Trevor. I don't think either of them started as with the vision of competing each other as they are not the same things. I personally don't see how Twitter is a particularly good advertizing tool though, surely you can't put much information on there can you?
Well with twitter I can throw up dail info on what ever subject they're interested in, just headlines and a clickable link. Apparently somebody likes it, because I have 3 accounts totalling over around 6,000 followers. With Facebook though I know the people more on a personal level, one to one communication. I have about 420 on my Facebook page.
Do you use them both equally Trevor? I see now how you can use Twitter as an advertizing tool, I guess the points that you make need to be very short, sharp and sweet though? Which one do you find yourself updating more?
Definitely Facebook because you can get a lot "deeper" when connecting with people; you're not limited to 140 characters
I like both. I like facebook because as what some people say, you connect with people, build deeper connections, and sometimes use those connections to advertise knowing you have good quality people. I like twitter for up to the minute tid bits of info going on throughout the world, I also like it for advertising too since you got a wider fan base and in my opinion stuff goes viral like crazy in there.
i'm just impressed to see how well twitter has implemented the process of micro-blogging. it lingered on for a while until twitter rocked it
right now facebook is more popular then twitter . and second thing twitter have more spam account and follower . one more thing both have different concept twitter is a micro blogging site whenever facebook is a complete Social Media Site. thanks
I think that Facebook outclasses Twitter in almost way. Applications and User Interface are the main advantages to Facebook as well as many others. However, the only benefit Twitter provides is for your website, it is fantastic for getting traffic to a blog or some kind of post.
I'd like toi see the demographic stats. I have a feeling that Twitter is generally an older crowd than Facebook (even thought thats got much older on average recently), and that todays kids aren't necessarily into Twitter as people might think. And anyway, its an iPhone thing as much as anything else. Here in Oz mobile Net access is so expensive that services like Twitter are popular simply because they don't chew up too much bandwidth.
For my opinion, twitter is better in Promoving thing's fast and the real good thing in Twitter is there big comunuty to gain followers=traffic and promoting what ever you want! eXemple: I created a twitt account a few hours later i have 500 followers , and I promote my website/product ,possible i will have 300 people to my traffic free![it's nothings Facebook are more in quality and have a lot's of people, more even than twitter. For the traffic at the moment facebook win's , because they have ads pages and fans! For the affiliated people they get better results.
I don't know yet if Twitter is more famous than Facebook, but if it is I wouldn't be surprised and I won't be surprised at the next social site that overtakes Twitter. It's the pattern.
