Facebook vs. Twitter: War of the New Social Networks

facebook-vs-twitter1

Twitter or sometimes referred to as the SMS of the internet by Jack Dorsey gained its international notability since its creation in 2006. By allowing its users to send tweets (message containing 140 characters in maximum) free, it has been very popular worldwide. Facebook by Mark Zuckerberg on the other hand is like an imitation of another social network, friendster. The popularity of these social networks was almost equal until Facebook started to lag behind Twitter. This is probably because Twitter offers a faster and more convenient way of sending messages which is comparable to the SMS service of our cell phones. Facebook is a more complex network which truly needs maintenance by the users.

In hope to cope with the success of Twitter which has undeniably reached the zenith of its success, Facebook has offered new service that will enable them (and maybe other users) to see the activity and changes to the state of the users. Changes in photos, in videos, in profiles and others will then be monitored. Facebook however should realize that this may not be a good move for it may violate the user’s right to privacy. Twitter is an all-out public social network although it is limited in terms of services.

May it be Twitter of Facebook, if the privacy of users is being invaded, they must take into consideration that this will be one of the things to make them bad at the eyes of their avid users.
