Twitter vs facebook

 Twitter versus facebook - a poem

Tweet tweet. 


One hundred and forty characters, in which to share your thoughts. 
Simple.
Succinct.
See something
Tweet about it,
Suddenly
It is shared across the world. 


Status update


Everything from personal to professional to 
Proof of how wonderful your friends are.


Photos of babies and rants about irresponsible dog owners
Virtual coffee mornings
With the occasional poke. 



I love both twitter and facebook (especially since I can access them on my phone - helps me stay in touch with the world). The way I see it though, they aren't really in competition.

Twitter is where I share  my thoughts.
Facebook is where I share my life.

Facebook is for the personal, for my close friends and family. Twitter is for everyone else. My tweets are there for all the world to see. My facebook profile is hidden behind walls of privacy settings.

Twitter is also linked to my professional identity. Me as a writer, a creative writing facilitator.

Facebook is personal. It's where I share my feelings about being a mum, among other things.

When I enter twitter, I am a slightly different person to the one that wanders around facebook.

You know which site's better than both those? ;-)

I still don't quite get Twitter.

You still owe me a story. Hope all is well.

Regards to your family.

Best,
