Short status updates on Facebook, not to mention the 140 character limit of Twitter, are ideal for entry on a smartphone and with a smartphone always nearby its easy to quickly check on either services whenever there is a few minutes of free time.
I think the data also supports why Twitter and Facebook are putting so much energy into mobile apps.
