Lunch Time POLL - To Tweet or to Post...

Jillian B Hart
When it comes to social media relationships which is more intimate a "Facebook Friend" or a" Twitter Follower"?  If you use twitter to push to Facebook... does that change the relationship.  (Should I dare to mention the Ménage à trois of the third party posting apps?)

Facebook required that you accept a friend before they can "stalk" your wall (assuming you have privacy restrictions activated.) Facebook gives control.  You can un-friend, ignore, hide or even block, whereas with Twitter there are no prerequisites or rules.  If you are being strictly "social" - is there a reason to welcome complete strangers to follow you? What's the pull or drive behind that desire?

Do prefer the act of relinquishing all control with Twitter or having a "set of rules" as to who will qualify for a friend acceptance or ignorance on Facebook? Does that feeling reflect anything about your "non-social networking", or real life personality ?
To tweet, post, or both.... that is the question.  Which do you think is more intimate or worthwhile?
Kindly share your comments!
