Re:How Facebook Could Kill Twitter Overnight by chadmalik on Saturday January 03, 2009 @01:40AM (#418214)
Facebook users are used to basically only broadcasting updates to the people they know. I think would take a long time and energy for FB to get them to accept twitter-style openness and it would probably make a lot of FB users look for a new platform. Also FB makes you tie your real name to your profile whereas Twitter lets you use an assumed username which I think is necessary for twitter style microblogging.
