Facebook grew its membership twice that of Twitter in the month of July. Generally speaking, I use Facebook solely for personal use and useful relationship building social site amongst my actual friends whereas Twitter I use more of answering the 140 character response: What am I doing, promoting my business, and engaging with followers.

Yes, Twitter is a great source for instant information, communication (Q&A, feedback, etc..), and one stop advertising,marketing. Nonetheless, Facebook starting off as a social site for connecting with college peers has moved into a whole world of social interaction displaying and sharing your entire life – apps, instant messaging, profile, pictures and video, the wall…

Overall Facebook is the winner. As a business you're better using Twitter to get your content acknowledged, read, and increase your viewership and visibility.

Facebook is just trying to be quick and easy like Twitter, but has confused some in the process.

Twitter is the new fad still for a while. Facebook will be around for much longer.
