A new era for microblogging. But it wouldn’t be as fun if we ditch our blogs. ^^ Hope to see you again sometimes.

Tim Sykes recently did a post comparing these two behemoths of social media and how much each is worth @ http://timothysykes.com/blog/2009/05/02/how-much-is-facebook-work-how-much-is-twitter-worth/

It is a very interesting video and caught my eye on how much steam Twitter actually has gained.

Nevertheless, it has enough member support and potential to stand the test of time. Twitter adds a little spark in our social life, that's all it is. <br /><br />The situation is like having a new ice-cream stand opens right opposite a pizza parlour. People would get excited about the ice creams, tidbits.. but afterall, they still need to fill up their stomach during lunch, while enjoying some quality times with friends and family. ^^ <br /><br />Similar, yet very different.

I don't think guys at Facebook need to panic about much hyped twitter popularity. It's a bubble (exp: <b>even my dog uses twitter</b>), that will soon fizzle out.

I don’t think guys at Facebook need to panic about much hyped twitter popularity. It’s a bubble (exp: even my dog uses twitter), that will soon fizzle out. Just my thought…

How do you see Facebook’s desperation to match twitter’s recently earned popularity?

Kind of like music too, only I get to write about social media, but dare not to go public with my poor guitar skill just yet.<br /><br />Yes! You're right. It's a Gibson, fell in love with that greenish, natural feeling. Glad you like it too. Hi Jannie,
