I have found it very annoying to open up FB and see my wall cluttered with RT@ and this is the same info I just read in Tweetdeck since I am following that person as well. How many times do I need to see it? Now, anyone that uses FB to RT is deleted from FB. That's just plain laziness i think. Make the effort to selectively post and share info. I think Twitter is more of a vehicle for pushing and sharing information, links etc, and maybe a comment or two on these. People that have a long conversation back and forth on Twitter get unfollowed. I like to follow people that bring value to me, but if they are tweeting that they are going to the store and having drinks here and there, that brings value to by business or profession. I choose to leave the convos, pics, videos and such for FB and it seems to be designed more for that, just look at its structure. -Tommy Something that has bothered me for a while now for sure.

It can go both ways, I was against it at first because to me it makes it look spammy when you update one status and it hits all other networking sites, like blasting it. But, at the same time, all these sites are different sites, so you have a different audience on each one, so it gives the latest update as to what's new with you. Facebook, I really just starting getting into, but I use Facebook and Twitter the same way, except with Facebook it's much more functionality so I can interact more with it and others. But, I would say it could be good if used right and setup correctly and it can be bad if used the wrong way too, but it's been working for me ;) That’s a really good question.
