COMPARE : FACEBOOK AND TWITTER

 “You are what you share.”
“Make friends not enemies. Compliment do not criticize. Like.”

WHAT IS SOCIAL NETWORKING? 

A social network is a website that allows anybody to build their own website and then connect with other users to exchange information and converse. Facebook, Myspace, Plurk, and Twitter are the major social networks. If conventional media is comprised of print and broadcast media, social media is comprised of the internet. Social media allows anybody to be amused by openly posting and commenting on content, as well as sharing knowledge in an instant and limitless length of time. It's a means by which submissives may tweet, push, and post their way into obscurity. While dominants continue to develop and rule the world, submissives waste their time in the most pointless stream of inconsequential awareness ever known. Facebook and Twitter have brought the cosmic static that gives the microwave echo of the Big Bang to life. We can now hear the vacuum communicating.

FACEBOOK VS TWITTER

The high-speed Twitter environment may be a world away from the more comfortable online community of Facebook, yet the two social networks have more in common than they could imagine. Both of them are wonderful promotional tools for businesses, giving valuable benefits for the audience and customer service. Understanding the commonalities between Twitter and Facebook may assist fine-tune the social media strategy as a whole.

FACEBOOK 

Facebook is a well-known social networking site that allows users to join and establish free profiles in order to communicate with friends and family. You may also add other users to your own Facebook page by simply sending them a request from a friend who can have access to what happens in your life. It may bring strangers into our social circles as well as friends and relatives.

We may also simply connect using this platform with thousands of individuals at the same time. For various activities, people utilise this network, such as uploading images, share links and videos, post status, information sharing, chatting, calling, playing games, etc. It offers several features such as events, pages, groups, etc. Better still, a user can employ privacy controls to limit viewers' access to their profile. A user can terminate a relationship and even block an individual, in which case the profile is hidden from the wider public.

"Facebook began as a social network, but it's much more now. A market place. A market place. A platform for news and media. Manage communication and control the communicating individuals."

This is my facebook which is very active and likes to share status pictures. This Facebook is my first account, it's been almost 10 years since I registered this account.

The nicest thing about this facebook is that it reminds me of the last year's memories. You could have lost things, people in your life. However, you may capture them eternally in your memory.👪

PROS 

• Facebook is the world's easiest app and means to communicate. Now, practically everybody in the world's good on Facebook. You don't worry much when you lose contact with someone since you know you will locate the individual on Facebook. I also appreciate Facebook's now a storey where you can upload photos and videos or anything around you without having to put them on your main feed or profile. Very great!!!!! Very excellent!!

CONS

• There are many phoney profiles. Online bullying and abuse from these profiles, Facebook should strive towards openness in community norms, filtering out these kinds of remarks, making stringent regulations in relation to hateful speeches. You have to download messenger separately from Facebook to message others

TWITTER

Twitter is a social networking website where individuals may communicate information via brief tweets with up to 140 characters. It enables registered users to find the newest information about the subject they want. It may be followed by any registered user simply by following him, after which his post may be seen by itself.

A tweet is text, photo, or video information described by a registered user as an opinion or thought. It is all social messaging or microblogging, where you may express any information or event or concept that the audience thinks is valuable. It helps to send a short message simultaneously to numerous individuals. In addition, people may react to tweets by answering, retweeting or adding favourites.

My Facebook is very active but I am still active on twitter, I will spend time with twitter 2@3 hours in the same time. I love twiiter no more netizen like 'makcik onion' heheheheh😂😂

PRONS

• In addition to collecting information and comments from individuals I share the same sort of thoughts, I use Twitter every day to read news on main portals. The technology is wonderful, since we can centre our interests on a single platform. 
• Connectivity, communication, exchanging ideas/thought/media, learning new things. Timeline is charming after carefully selecting the proper account to follow.
• Twitter has an intelligent interface and more organised you do not have to wait until the friend's request is accepted. For the sake of choice, I prefer Twitter to Facebook.

CONS

• Twitter should allow tweets to be "edited," so that the user does not lose access and interaction with the tweet by removing the tweet and uploading once more merely to repair any kind of error or other errors. Another is twitter is more wonderful if it adds tweets like Facebook.
• There are a restricted number of characters in a post (280) which limit what may be said and described, although this is better than the prior 140 characters. It is also possible to limit the time of the video upload and the pace of upload.
