Comparing two completely different world... Review on Twitter vs Facebook

Well, it has been few months that I have deactivated my Facebook account as I got bored with it. Too much of everything is bad, isn't it? I used to switch between Twitter and Facebook before that and now, only on Twitter.

But saying which one is best is difficult. Both are for totally different user groups. They have different features and different functionalities. Although both are social media platforms, Twitter is not for friends and Facebook is not for quick updates. You can't interchange them.

You maybe thinking that you can share your current status, your views via Facebook too. Well yes, but the twitter has a powerful weapon, the hashtags. And it doesn't work the way it works on Facebook(where people use it to tag friends). You don't have those fancy event options, traveling, listening, eating, sleeping etc to confuse you.

Click the hashtags and see the related tweets and news updates. Found a funny hashtag? Click on it and you would see all the tweets, where the hashtag is used. And this feature is more reliable on Twitter than on Facebook.

If you just want to keep up with friends and their updates, stick with Facebook. If you want to follow the updates of your idols, bloggers you like, share your views on a topic, then use Twitter. Its faster in spreading the news. Facebook pages also help in that matter but they have random audience. While on Twitter, whoever follows you, would get your updates in real time.

And then there are so many of those fun loving people you meet.;)
