I am sick of people critising facebook. Main culprit jeremy Kyle.
Only today I saw on the tv about poor tom daly having the most terrible twitter.
Im curious what others think.

Seems to me twitter is causing far more probs than facebooks ever done. And I too love the games on facebook.

Fb is great for finding old friends and keeping up with what they're doing.

Twitter is kinda pointless really except for '#' hash tagging stuff.

The key to using both is privacy.

On Twitter you can hide your tweets and set various settings about allowing people to follow you. Unless you're famous, unlike me you wont get many legit followers. Plus you only get 140 characters per tweet which is hard for a rambler like me!

On Facebook, the privacy and security settings have much more options. You can stop people searching for you, requesting invites and control how private your posts are. You can create lists of people and post only messages they can see.
Also much better for following bands and organizations.
And you can keep all your photos on there too.
Some people just use it solely with family members and close friends.

I have both, but prefer fb personally, rarely use twitter except for 'tweet along' tv programs like Big Brother, X-Factor etc.

Getting technical you can feed things to twitter and you get a txt. I have a couple of threads on here that post to my twitterfeed through RSS.
