Twitter is the new buzzword.  It seems one cannot turn on the news without it being mentioned.  Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service which allows its users to communicate with each other through short messages known as “tweets”.  Though Twitter is not as popular as Facebook, it continues to grow very rapidly.

There has been a lot of talk about Facebook in the media recently. Facebook is a global social networking website and is one of the most popular places on the net, with over 300 million users. Many people use Facebook as a way to connect with old friends but it has also become a major part of many businesses as they use it to promote and share information.
