What is twitter? What is so good about tweeting? Why it is popular? Is twitter the future? These and many more are normally the questions my friends are very keen to know these days and when I explain them the tweeting concept, they ask start comparing it to facebook 
Well, the answer is not as simple as many of you may aspect. Both have very strong impact on social media. Facebook therefore is superior I would say right now as compared to twitter.
Facebook has a bigger picture; friends and family members use it to reconnect with each other, share pictures, videos and what they are doing whenever they want!
Twitter on the other hand, encourages you grab ideas in byte-size chunks and use your updates as jumping off points to other places or just let others know what you’re up to at any given moment.
- Twitter is social marketing
- twitter is news reporting
- twitter is social messaging
- twitter is blogging
Why People Love Facebook
Facebook is definitely the one which brought heaven to social animals that are addicted to make new acquaintances and stay in touch with people. People now don’t even bother to write emails, they just do facebooking!!!
Facebook addicts prefer a single social platform to stay in touch as compared to other social portals, AIM, Yahoo, Windows Live Messenger, Gmail etc This largely explains the explosive growth Facebook continues to experience and why the company reportedly invested $200 million in data center upgrades last year to keep up with demand!
Why People Love Twitter
Twitter is not readily as obvious to some people as facebook but trust me its more addictive once you get the taste of tweeting you get response more quickly and it seems to live somewhere between the words of email, instant messaging and blogging. It builds up constant linking between people. People like to update their status more on twitter than they do on facebook.
But if we compare both in terms of the fame, twitter has grown faster than the facebook. Actually in a way, anyone with something to promote seems to find twitter extremely valuable. It can be a cause, business or anything!
Twitter addicts claim it’s like the old fashioned water cooler, where people can gather to shoot the breeze on whatever topic is on their minds. Twitter is like a communications stream you dive into for an invigorating swim.
So Which Social Network is the Best?
Well as different people have different opinions about both of them so it’s very hard to decide which one is better. It depends which one suits your mood more….Both have some advantages and disadvantages which I am going to discuss in this blog later.
Twitter started as a very simple concept of sharing status and staying in touch with friends in august 2006. So Which Social Network is the Best?
