The biggest difference between the 2 is something I'm noticing more - Twitter users are often not Facebook users. Twitter users like simplicity - status updates are our "world" (in a single context) and we're quite happy with that. No games, no photos, no friends from the past. Loose links. Random strangers. Disposable chat.
The question I have for 2009 is whether decentralised microblogging can take off, i.e. become a "service" rather than a privatised site, like e-mail is.
