Classic literature in the information age

I can't decide whether I prefer Homer's Odyssey on Twitter or Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice on Facebook.

It really all comes down to "Back home! Who r all these random dudes?" v "Mrs. Bennet KNEW that single men with good fortunes would want wives."

WIN!
But does wit make it less applicable to the 21st century? How often does wit really show up on facebook or twitter?
