The two aren't really comparable. I have basicallyno followers and I pretty much only follow sports and comedy accounts. Good for constant laughs and keeping me up to date on sports without checking 15 different sites 10/7/2013 8:25:32 PM

If you follow more than 40 or 50 people you have to stay on 24/7 so you don't miss anything 10/7/2013 8:29:25 PM

Even if you don't ever actually tweet it's a pretty amazing way to receive information. You just have to follow the right people and groups. 10/7/2013 10:46:04 PM

I have an account, but it's just for promotions that require retweets of things (like free stuff in games I play or tickets to parties). I've also used it for some cool social media analytics stuff at work. I think I've made 1 tweet on my own and it was to nominate something for the sportscenter top 10 10/8/2013 9:23:09 AM

That shows you dont really have a grasp on twitter's use.
It's the tip of the spear for all information that may interest you. 10/9/2013 11:08:22 AM

Yeah, I think people still don't 'get' Twitter. I didn't until maybe the whole Occupy thing.
It started off as another outlet for mundane individual self promotion, but it's much faster than a lot of mainstream media outlets.

No, the idiot news organizations that pick up random tweets as evidence without investigating are the source of misinformation.
Twitter information is only as good as the individuals delivering the tweets. 10/22/2013 12:46:00 PM

Bullet All American 28597 Posts user info edit post |
Well, yeah. Ok, let me rephrase my statement "Twitter makes it easier for news organizations to obtain and disseminate misinformation". (doesn't change my point though) 10/22/2013 12:49:17 PM

It all depends on who you follow.
Facebook, to me, is much more personal. It's a great way to connect with old friends, share pics, etc. But most of the people I'm friends with on fb, I really don't care that much about. The people I do care about, I generally keep up with them in real life. For twitter, I can keep up with sports/news etc 24/7. I follow a few of my closer friends, but I don't follow people that I don't care to keep up with. Keeps my timeline more in line with what I care about. I prefer it to facebook. I hardly use facebook anymore. 10/22/2013 12:52:18 PM

News organizations are dumb and twitter makes it easier for them to be lazier and dumb. That's true. But misinformation has always been a problem, with or without social media.
