I'm thinking that the FriendFeeds and Twitters of the world are conversation starters and facilitators, but they tend to break down if the discussion becomes intense and complex.

I think they're both Colin or at least have the potential to be both. There have been plenty of active discussions on FriendFeed, not so much Twitter just because it's harder to follow on Twitter.

Great post! Through Twitter and FriendFeed we're discovering information faster and the ability to "spread the fire" is much more efficient. But to answer your question, 'What are a social sites?' these are the ON Ramps- we feel safe going because we can see a trusted stream ahead, we have enough info to make a qualified decision to divert our direction to the source.

Twitter is a great place to get a message out; terrible if you're looking to follow a conversation, particularly if multiple parties are involved. I've found FriendFeed useful - I find the rooms great for quick conversations with peers, and sometimes that's all that is required, avoiding tedious navel contemplation.
Inevitably I rely on blogs, wiki's and forums for more in-depth analysis and discussion.
I see blogs as part of the social web - after all; we're all here having a discussion using Disqus which in turn will be aggregated on FriendFeed!
