I am really enjoying the facebook, and have spent quite some time with it. Some of my friends are also very happy as they have been saying and sending me invitations to join. I have an account in Orkut and this is very similar to Orkut. Lot of my students have accounts in FB, but I don't know if I am going to add them to my friend's list. It is a great way to connect to the people, and to stay in touch with them. It will be a good resource in my high school, to stay connected with the studens who graduated and are attending college, so other students can vision life after high school and also take some pointers from them.
I did not play much with Twitter, I don't know if the website was down, but I was not able to save my privacy setting. This will also be a great tool to see what your friends or your students are upto. You will definitely get a response much faster in twitter or facebook, than a regular email.
I really like back-channeling, it will definitely add depth to the presentation, on the other hand it can also act as a distraction.

I read that Twitter had an attack on it yesterday and it was down for quite a while. I tried Twitter a little, but am not too impressed. I like Facebook much better.
That could be the reason, why I was not able to save my settings. Is it still down, because I just tried again to save the settings and still unsuccessful. I was able to follow you though, so you will see my name as your follower.
I also like facebook much better than twitter, and that's why more people are using it and is more popular also.
