I used to have Twitter status update to FB, but after the UI change, it felt different and compelled me to delink the two. I am still trying to get used to it, but I know feel that I need to manage both channels. I see fb,myspace, twitter as places to go, and like you said "conversations", or I will go a step further, the quality of the content of such conversations is what attracts people, be them your friends, families or strangers. This is just the beginning, and tomorrow is an unknown, and that's what makes the online world so exciting to be part of .. the unknown! Rob, points well taken.

They key is what you offer as a destination. The only thing Facebook is really missing at this point is real news integration, pulling stuff from the AP, Reuters or NY Times. Not sure how they would fit that into the current interface though. Mark,

I think your points are right on the mark, but I can also see that Facebook could take over virtually all conversation as Facebook becomes an Internet portal to rival what MSN, Yahoo, and Google have done. IMHO, of course, but I think that's the next step: for Facebook to become everyone's portal to the Web. Will it happen? Maybe not, but if I were Zuckerman et al, I'd be thinking portal.

Twitter will have different uses. Why do you need to see the public feed of Twitter? Probably to find information. I am only talking about "conversation" here. Search is a completely different issue which Facebook is missing the boat on. I wrote about that on SearchEngineJournal.com earlier this week. They are important points, but with 200M users they can move mountains. Avi,

Also, Google is not indexing Facebook. Important points. Rob, there is one problem with Facebook. ok, 200M users, but unlike Twitter, only your friends can see your activities.
