twitter is good if u need to search something fast, people prefer Facebook may be because you can upload watch videos and pics all at one place.

I need to know why people dun "like" twitter, I mean some of friends actually make fun of me coz I'm a twitter addict =/ lol Specially in pakistan, ppl are more in fb thn twitter. I dun know why?
For me, its both, Facebook I use for personal use as i have my family and close friends there, I can share photo, vdos etc at one place. And twitter is more like a news update thing for me :P as im following the official accounts of different news paper, news channels and clebs so i dun need to read news paper or watch a news channel : P

PS :- Isn't it a repeat question btw ? *thinks*

Hassan Ahmed | 13 years ago

This is what i don't like that people has made twitter a commercial tool. Well you can communicate with twitter too...

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

@ Hassan Hmm yeah right !
@ Naveed Well I do communicate there too, I got really good friends from twitter. I was just explaining the differentiation I feel about FB and Twitter : )

Totally agree... Facebook is a mess... Pictures, videos, games, questions, links ohhhhh ..... Twitter is just texting and replying right on the tweet and that's it.

Honestly, I am neither that much into twitter nor into facebook. Facebook is basically just a place where I know my friends are, so I am there to update them and interact with them every now and then (especially if they live far away). However, I can totally understand why people like to tweet or be active on Facebook. Perhaps, I am just out of that particular phase :)

It is the matter of your mind set...

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

It surely is.

Sumi | 13 years ago

So u like none ? what about jawab. pk ; ) ?

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

I like twitter. Jawab.pk is a simple tool to share my thinking and thoughts. Though i am a blogger too. :)

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

:) Well I find them okay. Whereas I like to gain knowledge, I do not necessarily like to regularly check what certain people are up to. Call it disinterest or call it maintaining a certain distance :) Jawab.pk is cool! It is almost becoming a mini-online-family. Craziness! ;)

Sumi | 13 years ago

Well, I used to tweet and I used to blog a lot. I still write from time to time, but things have changed at my end. :)

Sumi | 13 years ago

Oh yeah, I also dun feel like facebook-ing or tweeting these days.

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

Age factor is out there in your case... May be.. Internet and Iphone is my life and i am 24 hours connected with my Iphone. I like iphone just for the better experience of mobile internet. I am very digitally social person. :)

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

No age factor id there i feel, I have seen older ppl addicted too Fb and twitter and younger ppl hating it lol it depends how much you're in social networking, Like, I'm not at ALL a social bee but My friends calls me a | social "network| bee : P

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

I am sure age matters, but I have my own 'philosophy' when it comes to age. So keeping that aside, I too am pretty much 24/7 connected to internet with my cell. It has even substituted my use of laptop. :) I am social in every sense of the word - be it online or offline.

Sumi | 13 years ago

Ok now you're Social Bee Zainab.. :D

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

Internet is the second life and personality in your real life... I like your though Sumi. :D

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

@ Zainab: you got it all right! ;) Been there, done that - thrill was there.

Sumi | 13 years ago

And I'm proud of being one = D

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

@ Zainab: lolz. cute! :)
@ Khawaja: thanks :) btw, we have many personalities - many faces.

Sumi | 13 years ago

LOl @ sumi yeah u knw eva, after 10 years I would be saying the same ; )

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

I think this conversation is getting longer and longer... Shouldn't we find more questions? :D

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

@ Zainab: wow, you are giving yourself sometime. my hype vanished within 3 years (even that is a lot! :o)
@ Khawaja: lolz. this is becoming more of a chat. :)

Sumi | 13 years ago

@Sumi: I was talking about the "age" factor na ; )
Oh well shh or the admins gonna punish us for spamming : O

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

Usama Hafeez | 13 years ago

@Zainab: hahaha... I'm here for spying... :D

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

@Usama: Great entry... :D

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

"Age factor? The older, the betta, the wiser!! I believe : ) so no offensive pleej !! :$

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

@ all: thx for making me feel so uncomfortable people! I quit!

Sumi | 13 years ago

Hey, I'm sorry, dun get me wrong, I was talking referring to my own self :S ^ *apologies* : )

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

-talking, referring the age factor*

Zainab Hussain | 13 years ago

For me its both, twitter and facebook. And the answer to your second question is that people are not shifting to twitter because Facebook is relatively easy to use as compared with twitter and they will take time to learn it

I think aap nay ulta keh diya hai... Twitter is so simple and easy to use rather than facebook...

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

No, for some twitter is more complicated than Facebook. Because they know where to upload photos and videos etc. Its easy for them to look at profiles and see all the information which is not possible on twitter.

Nabeha | 13 years ago

There is no any special link for anything in twitter... All the things are done in the same wall.. and the same text box.

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

and this is what is confusing .. Its more simple when you separate things as done by Facebook . It makes things less complicated and more organized :)

Nabeha | 13 years ago

I think you haven't use twitter much... I can see the knowledge and experience gaps in your answer.

Khawaja Naveed Haider | 13 years ago

Oh no, shes right. For a person coming from FB, twitter is very confusing!

Usama Hafeez | 13 years ago

I do use twitter alot but yes I have joined in recently

Nabeha | 13 years ago

@Usama: Bhai koi bhi kaam banda pehli baat ooper say seekh kar nai aata...
@Nabeeha: You will notice soon that how easy twitter is than facebook. Twitter is a piece of cake.

Very interesting question, Zainab. My initial questions to you or anyone would be:
1) How do you define the so-called typical rishta process?
2) Who asks for rishtas from whom and for whom?
3) Who introduces the families to each other? / How did they 'get to know' each other - the source, perso ... read more
