Not because twitter is better, or because facebook sucks. It’s because I want to manage less. Twitter is easy, I say something, chat with people when I feel like it, and ignore it when I want to.
Facebook is different. signing in, I am overloaded with requests, invitations, games, and nonsense that i would never normally care about.
Now I understand many people use facebook as the primary means of connecting and interacting with people, and I think that sucks. If a friend needs to contact me, they can call, text, or email me. I wasn’t on facebook 24/7, so it’s not very efficient in telling me anything of importance.
“friending” vs. “following”
The terminology seems more selfish for twitter, but twitter is much more than an ego boost, (right). It’s a chat room. and only 1 chat room. not a chat for every mundane piece of information ever.

Instead, I’m on facebook talking to stevie in TWO DIFFERENT CONVOS:
This one is about the weekly world news. It quickly disintegrated into Rachael Ray Bashing. [FYI: check out this forum topic. Meaghan G. is obviously an honest fan. http://www.yelp.com/topic/boston-who-loves-rachael-ray
So guess what I did….
Intensity, Integrity, and Intelligence.

no, i am not gonna make an application. I started a group so I can make everyone in the group an officer with a silly name. the idea is that people will see their friends news feed and their silly title and the join to get one of their own.
