There was tweet going around a few months ago to the effect of: Facebook makes me hate the people I know, Twitter makes me love people I’ve never met. This is unquestionably part of the reason." From Twitter Vs. Facebook by Justin Tadlock
IM NOT TRYING TO BE A TWITTER ADVOCATE HERE BECAUSE I LOVE FACEBOOK AS MUCH AS THE NEXT PERSON. IT'S A GLOBAL PHENOMENON THAT CONTINUES TO ASTONISH THE WORLD WITH IT'S MILLIONS OF FOLLOWERS. BUT TWITTER OFFERS A DIFFERENT KIND OF CHALLENGE, ONE THAT IS GLOBAL IN NATURE. TO ACTUALLY FIT A COHERENT THOUGHT IN NOT MORE THAN 140 WORDS AND STILL MANAGE TO ATTRACT ATTENTION FROM PEOPLE AROUND THE GLOBE WHO CAN VIEW YOUR POSTS AND SEE IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING FUNNY OR INFORMATIVE ENOUGH TO SHARE REALLY IS QUITE CHALLENGING AND CAN BE A VERY GOOD MENTAL EXERCISE AS WELL.
I THINK THE REAL VERDICT HERE IS THAT THEYRE BOTH FUN. SERVE TWO MASTERS WHY DONT YOU? I SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. FOR ME, IF I WANT SOMETHING PERSONAL I TURN TO FACEBOOK BECAUSE I LOVE SEEING HOW MY FRIENDS ARE DOING, BUT IF I WANT TO GO PUBLIC, I TURN TO TWITTER WHERE I COULD SEE EVERYTHING THATS HAPPENING OUTSIDE THE PHILIPPINES AND HOW DIVERSE CULTURE IS FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD.
TO TWIT OR TO TAG? TAKE YOUR PICK.
