FaceBook vs. Twitter

I've been meaning to repost this for a while, because I thought it was quite clever and well put. Yves Lande, by way of Claude Baudoin, who kindly forwarded and translated:

We're on Facebook in order to lie to our closest friends, and on Twitter in order to say the truth to perfect strangers.

(Originally in French only: "On est sur Facebook pour mentir à ses amis les plus proches. Et sur Twitter pour dire la vérité à de parfaits inconnus.")
