Twitter and Facebook

Twitter is a very Popular Web 2.0 Application used by people and celebrities all over the world. In one of my earlier posts, I spoke about the Pros and Cons of Facebook. I think Twitter is better than Facebook. This is purely because it seems to offer exactly what Facebook has to offer except in a more slim lined, simplified, mature version. Also with the connection between twitter and Instagram (where you submit statuses through picture sharing), you have all the visual features that you have on facebook that you miss by just having Twitter.

Although Twitter seems to have a lot more to its name, Facebook is a lot easier to use and is a lot easier and more suitable for a younger audience to use as well as older, as opposed to Twitter. Facebook seems to have a larger self obsession aspect to it and people can find they start to live on facebook as opposed to real life, and become depressed if they haven't submitted a good status or other silly things like this. This doesn't seem to happen anywhere near as much in Twitter.

Both Twitter and Facebook have educational aspects to them and are quite similar to blogs, as you can Add/Follow people or organisations or applications that post news, play educational games on Facebook and follow People that post useful facts and other general knowledge.
