Facebook and Google+, Please Reduce Clutter

One of the reasons why I hate Facebook is noise. I joined because I wanted to know what's going on with people that were dear to me, but with whom I lost contact. What I got is:

• dozens of funny and "funny" pictures
• bunch of posts about articles somebody is reading now
• YouTube and everybody else's tubes
• children games played by adults

Are Twitter's Days Numbered?

I must admit that I'm latecomer, I signed up only this year. I found some friends, added some more people who I found interesting, read some tweets. And I just don't get it. I found exactly the same type of people as on the other social networks and exactly the same type of messages: look at this funny picture, big thanks to my fans, our product rules, here is my new blog .

In the old days, when feature phones were rarity and social networks young, some ingenious guys came up with idea how to make (micro)blogging on dumb-phones viable. Twitter allowed two-way communication within people using short and simple text messages, available on every phone. Although it started as blogging platform, Twitter exploded with the rise of the social networks, thanks to its low entry threshold.
