Facebook and twitter are free service
sites of social networking, facebook has been used by the public since
september 2006, while twitter since October 2006. The different services
between them in my opinion are as follows. First, the interface or twitter is
simpler that is not too interesting for some people. While facebook, there are
many kinds of applications that make facebook more interesting and attractive
such as games, post card, survey, etc. Another thing is that twitter is focused
on the microblogging ( a blog is a type of website, usually it is made by an
individual with reguler entries comentary, description of events such as
graphics or videos). The blog is limited only for 140 caracter. Second, for
facebook besides it could be for microblogging, it is also an interesting
social networking to comunicate each other. With facebook we can use the
chating tab to make communications with our friends which are online at the
some time. The last is an “ a symmetric “ model which is about how twitter
currenly works. With twitter, if you want to make a friend we just send a
friend request and automatically he/she becomes our friends without a need to
ask for a permission from them. So we could “ follow “ some artists in twitter
easily. While facebook has always used a “symetric “ model in which each time
we add someone as a friend he/she has to add us as a friend as well. Although
both services are basically the same, but they have advantages and
disadvantages. So it depends on our needs.
