I use both. Twitter is great because it keeps me closer to my family when we can't see each other every week or sometimes every month. Since I have their "tweets" going to my cell phone, it's like being in a chat room with my family all day.

As for Facebook, I get to keep in touch with people who I would have otherwise never talked to again even though I do care how they're doing.

Maybe those of you who are still in high school don't "get" it, but when you get to be ten years out of high school or college, or you or your friends have moved away, there are certain friendships and co-worker friendships that you don't want to lose. Without these social networks, people you were really close to just go away without a common bond like a shared school, employment, or geographical location to hold you together.

Facebook's better than Twitter for that though, to be honest.

Twitter's been used right in a few situations- for example, the youtube video series Marble Hornets- but usually it's misused.
