I found God on Facebook, but is it really Him?
3,281,728. That's how many fans He has.
But did He really post that recipe for a killer omelette on His -- dare I say Wall, with a capital "W" -- the other day?
No, absolutely not.
This is an interesting point to bring up.
While Facebook has been a hallmark for communication and networking among us regular folk, it has always been seen as lacking in the realm of super socialites (think Vin Diesel, Jay Z and Rihanna).
Yes, you can find Ashton Kutcher, Michael Phelps, Jackie Chan, and even Johnny Depp on Facebook, but whether those walls are updated, and updated accurately, is entirely up to the fan page administrator.
That's because most of the "important people" pages on Facebook are exactly that -- fan pages. By fans, for fans.
So, if you're expecting to be an instant insider, you'll have better luck expecting an admission of guilt from Blagojevich on his wall.
Twitter, in comparsion, is a unique development.
While it's been difficult to explain why some choose Facebook over Twitter, or vice versa, Twitter has illustrated great use of a technique techies like to call, "account verification."
By visiting this link [http://twitter.com/verified/lists] on Twitter, you are able to see those "important" accounts who are real people, not fan pages.
They are sorted by list, and include Business, Technology, Music, Entertainment, Sports, Politics, Media, and a newly-introduced category, Olympians, among others.
God, however, is not listed on Twitter.
That's because, Twitter-wise, he's not verified.
