Although this article (http://bit.ly/4IRvTy) has a sensationalist subhead, there is only one line in the article that relates to that statement. I quote "our research shows that even more than Twitter, people are using social network status updates -- mostly Facebook -- for these same sorts of connections."
This is a theme I've been exploring for a couple of months now. Here's my original post from Nov. 11: Is Facebook the inevitable social portal? http://tinyurl.com/yjgv9ppPut simply, Twitter is going to go away. It's easy to figure out how to use it, but most folks can't figure out why to use it. Having been on twitter for almost two years, I love it but I notice the adoption rate over that time, despite Ashton Kutscher, is nothing compared to the rise in Facebook users. People get Facebook..it's about friends. Twitter is about business.
I have no doubt that Facebook will absorb all of Twitter's functionality soon; they just incorporated the retweet feature. And doubtless, everyone on Twitter already has a Facebook page. In fact, one person I follow, Matt Singly (@mattsingley) who has 32,000 followers on Twitter, posts to both Facebook and Twitter simultaneously.
That is the future.
We will tire of maintaining multiple tools. When I can port my fellow Tweeters to Facebook, and maintain those connections there, I will do so, I just hope I'll be able to retain the conversations and friends I've met on Twitter, because they represent a very diverse amalgam of brilliant, educated, humorous people and and I will miss them if they go away completely.

The combination of humor and irony would be enough, but this card embodies the true spirit of the holidays. It's very memorable and will make you smile, even though the hoildays are over.

There are simply too many gems in here to mention them all, but a few that I can highlight:

"Glengarry Glen Ross" is without doubt one of my favorite movies--it gets a 98% from Rotten Tomatoes (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/glengarry_glen_ross/) , and David Mamet is one of my favorite writers. There are so many memorable moments in this movie, but I can watch this brutal scene of Alec Baldwin as Blake railing at Jack Lemmon and Ed Harris over and over again. And I wouldn't ever attempt to rewrite Mamet, but in trying to relate these powerful words to my life, I keep thinking instead of A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Closing. Always be closing, I would say A-B-T, A-Always B-Be T-Tweaking. Always Be Tweaking. I love creating, refining, making things come to life in a fluid and flexible way. It's very much like a journey, once you begin you know where you're going, but how you get there, the twists and turns you must take, are not always clearly defined. And I know so well that with each new twist and turn, something I hadn't thought of can become integral to the end product, making it richer in a way I hadn't anticipated from the start. So one thing I'm sure of is I enjoy the serendipity of the process, and if I can, I will avoid working for any Alec Baldwins. otherwise I may end up with a set of steak knives, or worse, a product with no soul.
