However, I believe Twitter’s ability to market easily comes from those who associate usernames with brands. Right now, brand awareness is the sole reason why people follow particular Twitter streams. It also serves a specific purpose, while its chief competitor, Facebook, does not. I still follow Woot.com. Go with both.

After all, Facebook could eat the web. In fact, you’re likely spotting the shift; instead of companies posting their URLs on television commercials, they’re asking their followers to join them on Facebook. Don’t use a Facebook Group.
