A better alternative to Twitter should actually provide features other websites don't.

Why should I go out of my way to use Twitter to do things I can already do on Facebook?

Why would I want to share status updates with strangers vs. friends?

I understand what makes Twitter appealing in a marketing sense, but for me personally, it's nothing more than a chore to deal with on top of everything else.
