I Facebook but seldom tweet.
I use it as a social network - what a novel way eh?
My family is flung far and wide and it is the best way to share images, stories and to generally keep up with my children, their children, my siblings, cousins, friends and acquaintances, even my 86 year old Mom is on FB.
I also select what news I get feed to me daily on FB, have joined a bunch of groups, photography, model railroaders, recumbent cyclist, parrot keepers and many more.
I run a children's centre and we use FB to connect with all the young parents who use our services - it is great - and free. We do have a website - not free, The Free FB generates 1,000x more business than the paid webpage.
BTW - FB is your Mother's Social network according to teens today - very few youth use FB and if they do that's the sterilized sharing suitable for viewing my Mom and Dad.
In our community there is an Adult Learning Council that offers courses for adults on soup to nuts, their workshops on ipads and FB are the most popular among the older generation (50+). See if there are any free or low costs courses on using FB in your community - or hook up with a FB nut and let her talk your ear off (FB has far more female users than males).
FB Really works for this old man.
Twitter - can't get my thoughts out in that few characters - and few of my friends tweet.
