Oh, I don't think good discussion happens on Twitter either. And while there are some celebrities I follow I don't see what anybody else says to them so the inanity of the general public doesn't come up for me often (I've clicked maybe one hash tag in my life and searched a topic only a couple of times).
That said, as a tool for keeping up with my friends I find what they say on Twitter to be of more interest on Twitter than on Facebook. Part of that is probably because I'm not spammed by stupid games on Twitter. Nor do they post so many pictures of [babies | pets | weddings | etc.].
And I'm not saying good conversations don't happen on Facebook. Just that they're not frequent enough for it to draw me there as a normal course of events. And even when there is good conversation I'm censoring myself in ways I'd prefer not to and when I don't then I feel like I should apologize to the person I was commenting to for any ruckus caused.
Yes, ruckus.
