Facebook is good for IQ; Twitter is not.

In a remarkably strange ‘study’ by a rather eccentrically strange woman; she believes that 
Facebook is better for your intelligence than Twitter.
Dr. Tracey Alloway of Scotland believes in radical various methods of recording a child’s intelligence by the means of their ‘working memories’ – that is; the memory that is stored for later use, and that this is far more important than recording a child’s intelligence quota.
She reckons that the ‘working memory’ is more important as a factor of intelligence than IQ.
Apparently due to the fact that you have to remember to keep up with your 500 or so friends on Facebook; this apparently good for expanding on the ‘working memory’ and improves your intelligence. Also apparently Youtube and Twitter’s fast-moving instant stream of information is bad for your working memory and decreases your intelligence. She also claims that text-messaging and MSN, or anything she deems ‘instant’ also is bad for your brain.
Some people, eh?
