• Five Questions for Fred Wilson
  “Facebook is having a fantastic year in 2009 already. I think it’s having a second wind, driven by serious adoption (as opposed to just setting up a profile) by the over 40 generation and by significant  international adoption. Twitter is different from Facebook and highly complimentary. The two big differences are Twitter is public like blogging and Facebook is private (friends only). Also the relationship models are different. On Twitter you can follow me even though I don’t follow you. On Facebook, the following/friendship has to be mutual. This leads to different use cases and I think we’ll see many people use both services for different purposes.”

I’m on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Friendfeed. Catch up with me.
