    That question is so vague in it's construction that it is therefore open to all manner of interpretation. If lonew wants a more informed debate then maybe he/she would like to be a bit more specific. For example, will Facebook beat Twitter to have the most number of accounts, posts per day, traffic, number of policticians online, blue pages, etc etc etc.

    Give us something to work with lonew. Hey! You know that little voice in your head that talks to you all the time? Well we can't hear it so you have to spell out the full story so we can really get to understand what you are asking. Then we'll try give you a good answer!!!!

    I'm using Facebook, and I really like it. It has a lots of services. I don't know anything about Twitter, so in my perspective Facebook is the best!

    I am amazed that twitter has taken off at all. Facebook is far more information than I wish to receive on a daily basis. I can not imagine twitter.

    in a matter of 8 months twitter had about 100 million users
    it could be possible that twitter will overtake FB.

    we can't say that twitter can beat Facebook... because both have different value...
    so we can't compare......

    To be honest I never saw the point in having a twitter account... you can do that with Facebook as well with Facebook statuses... Twitter is pointless.

    nope i don't think so , i think facebook will stay at the top for a good while because it isn't just a social network connecting people , it also has loads of other features that raise its stakes ...

    Most companies use Twitter maybe because Twitter is more of a formal mini blog updater for clients unlike Facebook which can be a semi-formal way of providing updates for clients. In terms of the most useful, I prefer Facebook rather Twitter coz of the available applications and games it provides. I use Twitter in a different way. I use it to promote formally a product or services.

    To me Twitter and Facebook serve two different purposes. You can build up your fan base with Facebook and you can direct market to people better on Twitter.

    Facebook is fare more versital then twitter from a marketers piont of view. Facebooks fan page can be indexed by the search engines, the like button on facebook will post on all the friends wall of the person who click the button "could be five thousand and any one of them could pop into your fan page and do the same with the button giving you five thousand more people. The fan page can be a squeeze page, sales page, blog! Your fan page can even tweet your post. 500million people on facebook and growing expodentuly daily. 1/2 get on every day and stay 55 min thats powerful. Facebook and twitter are different---twitter is a note left on your door and facebook is a gigantic maltimedia marketers wet dream. What do you think. As a side note-- can we invite forum folks to be friends on facebook? Just thought I would check

    Really i see a lot of potential with Twitter i currently use it more than Facebook but the constant downtime is really hurting it and it's chances. Facebook has over 500 million users yet i rarely see it go down.

    Impossible for twitter to beat Facebook, becozz the features twitter is providing is just the status updates which is fb also providing via user profiles. So, in my opinion, twitter is just a waste of time. Better to build your business through facebook.
