The difference between private and public social networks is that in public social networks everyone can view your profile like Twitter. After you login, you see your own page which is different from everyone else's.There is a way to make your content private but Twitter's main purpose is to share information publicly.
Private is information that is not see by everyone for example if you look at facebook it is private in the sense that only your "friends" can look at your status updates or wall. Although there is a way to make your content public, facebook primarily encourages personal and private convesations.
