    I never have followed Twitter. I find FB a nice way to reconnect with old friends who time and distance have separated but mostly I use FB to to stay in contact with the women in my life and watch them have public meltdowns.

    Twitter I find obnoxious. Are people really that self absorbed that they believe I want to hear their every opinion? Uhh no.

    LOL @ the public meltdowns. That's funny.

    You are definitely not wrong about Twitter and the self absorbed (hence it being a perfect place for OJ). It truly is a cesspool.

    It's the occasional nuggets I read that draw me back periodically but I wouldn't lose any sleep if it was gone tomorrow. JPP on the other hand...

    It’s more than funny...it’s true. Also, have you noticed the older men who are not very savvy about Social media? They’re the ones posting about politics like they were on JPP and alienating everyone.

    FB also tracks me as a political moderate, not because of my political views, cause I rarely discuss politics on FB but because I have roughly the same number of conservative and liberal friends.

    I can't say I've noticed an age or gender difference between those who I see posting politically on Facebook. It's done way too much for my tastes.

    Someone sent me a set of instructions on how to pull up what information FB tracks on you. I'd have to look it up again.

    My anecdotal evidence is I see mostly boomer men posting a lot of political crap. I agree...I see to much of that on FB.

    Being a Gen Xer most of my "friends" are somewhat around my age so maybe that's why I don't see it as much as far as Boomers.
