This weeks Blog Talk topic is Social media and blogging, most of us who blog also have a Facebook and twitter account, it's a great way to stay connected with followers and it's super fun ;)

 

We would love to know if you have a favorite, if one works better for you and you blog over the other, which helps you spread the word about your posts/ blog more, etc.....

I'm going to have to vote Twitter.

I know Facebook is a huge hit and everyone raves about it but honestly I only use it as a Facebook Page and I like it for that purpose but it is often a pain you have to sign up for a personal account (which I do not use at all- so if I don't follow you on Facebook it's not that I'm being rude I just don't use my personal account- I mean I don't have one friend or post) BUT some aps make me sign in on my personal page to apply the app to my business page and it always ends up being a mess- for weeks I was posting to one of my business pages come to find out my posts were posting to my personal page - that NO ONE follows. It's a bit frustrating I wish Facebook would allow Business Pages without having to have a personal account. So that's my Facebook rant but don't get me wrong I do like having a page- when it does what I want it to, lol!

 

I love Twitter because it's short and sweet, this is what I have to say, here's the link and on I go! :)

Oh I hear ya about the Business Page thing!
I totally agree with you especially about Facebook!  I don't like using Facebook at all and I don't like it when some websites or organizations require you to link to a Facebook account in order to use their website or the service they are providing 

Well Darling, I had a Twitter account...Triberr as well... I find that it may be short and sweet, but I didn't have the time! Facebook is just a page and quite frankly Darling, I'd much rather go shoe shopping...lol...  xoxo

lol, you are too funny! But if you kept your Twitter account you could tweet about all the shoes you buy, parties you attend, and all other fab details of your OC life that your followers would love to hear about- and you could even tweet pics of the shoes while you are out shopping for them, lol!!!!!! ;)
I still haven't figured twitter out :) So i'd say Facebook. Facebook is just way more easier.
Twitter, as a concept, is so much more simple than Facebook! Twitter is just status updates, basically. Nothing else gets in the way.

If you need help figuring Twitter out, I'm more than happy to help! :) 

I was so intimidated by Twitter at first, but within a month of joining, I had it almost all figured out and now I love it!

I have both and I love Twitter! I have a personal FB and a fan page but find that my personal account is way too cluttered by people I felt obligated to friend (like high school people or acquaintances that I don't share much in common but didn't want hurt feelings over something silly like FB).  My Twitter account is full of bloggers that I love to read and interact with and it's so quick and ...uh, NO ADS ..thanks FB for becoming even more annoying!  

 

Twitter all the way!

That's a big reason why I don't use my personal Facebook at all I think I even used a different name because anyone and everyone can find you I would like it maybe if it were a bit more private.
I personally vote for Facebook.  Only because my twitter feed is my personal one & while I do post my stories on there, I just prefer Facebook & think it's a better tool.  I don't do too much with my fan page, but I still can tell that it's helping increase my readership & interaction.
I use both. Every time I post a new book review, Wordpress automatically posts a message on twitter and my Facebook page. I am also a Facebook junkie you could say so I love my Facebook page almost as much as my personal FB page. I love being able to interact with my followers easier than I can through comments on my blog. If you would like to join me you can like me at facebook.com/cantputitdown :)
