I like Twitter but I use it for following people I don't know who have interesting things to say. And so I can find out that the pope has resigned from Death Star PR.
Facebook basically sucks but it's where I can have some semblance of connection to a circle of acquaintances in the dance world. And see photos of my grandkids when their parents find time to post. But it's so hard to filter and see what you want to rather than every random bit of dreck to inhabit the internet.
I would like to use LoT to post things that I'm not comfortable posting on Facebook, for example whiny complaints about dancing that I'd prefer my dance friends not see. But I usually forget or decide no one wants to see all that anyway.
I really don't see Facebook (and especially not Twitter) as places for conversations. Do people have conversations? Look up from their smart phones and everything?
