Would you rather tell the world what you're doing on Twitter or speak your mind on Facebook? Facebook hopes it's the latter, and it continues to make moves that mirror the simplicity of Twitter's popular service.

Facebook is emphasizing the real-time features already available on the site and hopes to increase the value of users' messages, thereby improving search and discussions among its 200 million active users.
