facebook vs twitter

There are two social network was very popular in the world. There are facebook (www.facebook.com) and twiter(www.twitter.com) .  twitter was popular after facebook, but now twitter more popular than facebook. Facebook and twitter make a some new in there website but what effect for their member. Because that  I am interesting to make some investigation to know what the most popular social networking in Indonesia. I tell you about difference between facebook and twitter.

1.     Time to “log in” in computer.

a.       Facebook:  only 8 second to log in, but you need type your email(username@mail.com) or your phone.

b.      Twitter: only 18 second to log in, but you need type your username (@user)or  your email.

2.     The appearance of time line.

a.       Facebook : we can know the update of all our friends,  the birthday someone, advertisement something, news,game, and we can know our friend who is online so we chat with them.

b.      Twitter : we can know the update our friends, news, the suggestion people to follow, the new trend, and the mention (like question from or friend).

3.     Many of character to update your status.

a.      Facebook : in facebook you can type many word in your status. You can include picture, video, and your location too.

b.      Twitter : in twitter you can type only 140 character in your status. You can include picture and your location too.

4.     Service.

a.      Facebook : in facebook you can chatting with your friends, update status, save or share your picture, playing game, search someone, video calling, create event, and sell something.

b.      Twitter : you can update status, direct message ( like chatting), share or save your picture, and search someone.

5.     Information.

a.      Facebook : in facebook we can make an information in one post because we can type many word in facebook, so if we read it we can direct read all sentence of the information and we can direct to like the information/post and directly to comment.

b.      Twitter : in twitter we only can type 140 word so if we want to make a long information we must type in other web, so if we want to read a long information we must goto other web too.

6.      Member.

a.      Facebook : in facebook there are 44,6 million people in Indonesia.

b.      Twitter : in twitter there are 19.5 millio people in Indonesia.

I am already survey 10 person who use facebook and twitter. There are 4 people like twitter and 6 people like facebook. They are like twitter because twitter is simple so if we can easy to open twitter in handphone. They are like facebook because service in facebook is more comfortable and many application is very useful. From my opinion I am more like facebook because the service is more useful and we can chatting with our friends, if we use twitter we can chatting too but we cannot know who is online. 

In my investigate I think facebook is more popular social network than twitter in Indonesia, but I think facebook and twitter have a different utility. If we want to chat and save or share our photo, facebook is more comfortable. If we want to know a update news, twitter is more comfortable
