Most of all people in the world love chat, so maybe that’s why facebook is more interesting and popular than twitter. On the other hand, twitter is created with “microblogging” system which more simple and individual than facebook. Because of this is a “microblogging” system, people just can post their tweets (status) not over than 140 characters. Twitter also does not have many features like chat, group, tag photos, note and anything else on facebook. In contrast to twitter, facebook provides more space for their user’s written by more than 140 characters in every post. The other difference between facebook and twitter is about their friendship system. In facebook, people can automatically being friends with just one of them “add” another to be his/her friends.
