The biggest difference between a Blackboard Based discussion and a twitter discussion is the pace of each medium. On Blackboard, we all post a thread and have the freedom to come to this thread whenever we want to see its content. It can be replaced by new post but it always organized and easily to find. There is no character limit, nor is there any sense to constantly post content.
Twitter on the other hand has a character limit and is very face paced for the most part. The entertainment Twitters that I follow literally post new content up every 10-20 seconds. News and life is always going and Twitter is meant to keep up with this pace.
