I know at least 5 actual twitter users in my close social circle/family. Some users don't want people to know about their twitter life and use @handles that don't match their name. Maybe there are more people using twitter around you than you think.
- quickthrower2 7y agoMakes sense! People generally carry different personas for different people and situations. The persona twitter might be fighting for justice, but you are no ready for your uncle to know about it and then berate you to your dad as a made up example. Or you don’t want your non geek friends to read your Linux related joke posts. Etc. Twitter is public multicast as the only toy. Facebook has connections, more targeted messages etc. but I also feel there is a chilling effect there because you are not anonymous, so holiday pics and cat photos and other safe stuff it is on the most part.
