Today, all the people are willing to use twitter account because we can get update news within a second as compare to other social media. But at the time, i like face book and twitter very much 🙂
I agree with @jose Tinto but even Twitter has a private message option but i think people rarely check twitter private messages.Atleast i don't ;p
Yea its obvious dude. Most of the professional people use twitter instead of facebook and also officially if anything is being publicized its on twitter more than facebook. 🙂 I love both of the social media.
In Twitter all the "asks" are public but in Facebook "asks" are private via chats or mails. I believe that's a strong point to consider before reaching a conclusion.
Yes you're right Jose! I guess that's the only reason why many officials news and updates are being posted to twitter first!
