There’s an hilarious spoof story worming its way around the web today, claiming that last nights ‘Twestival’ was thwarted by a group of fanatical Facebook fans. Scenes akin to the recent Milwall/ Westham riots ensued, whilst delegates from each camp updated absent friends on the fight status via their PDAs .

Joking aside, it’s interesting to see exactly how much competition exists between the two social networks, especially given the news that Twitter has expanded its terms of service to allow advertising on the site.

Facebook is currently the world’s largest social networking site with 200 million users, but Twitter is fast catching up with 44.5 million users  and 15-fold  growth  year-on-year.

Let the fight continue…
