I opened a Facebook account late April because some friends and family were on a I had received a couple requests to join in. So, reluctantly, I joined to see what it was all about.
It seems to be a part Twitter, Blog, and Flickr. Central to it all is the ability to see what your friends are posting on one page. You can also tie your Facebook account with your Twitter, Blogger, Flickr, Photobucket, and a host of other online accounts so additions there show up on your Facebook page for all to see. Quite handy for the socially addicted individual.
I have used it quite a bit in the past two months, posting things I might have posted here, there. So, is Facebooking better than Blogging? It depends on what you are using it for. Facebook is a good way of keeping connected with the little things that are going on - those short posts you don't want to clutter your blog with, while blogging is more suited for those longer winded posts.
Also, since I can post pictures, links, movies, and even embed my rss twitter feed, there isn't much I can't do on Blogger than what I can do with Facebook. Except create a social networking location. But that's not what I intended to do here.
