Ok guys, so I tweaked the original post, works for iOS 6/7. Change ServiceType, Alert Title and Message for Facebook. Enjoy!

- (IBAction)tweetMessage:(id)sender {


  if(![SLComposeViewController isAvailableForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter]) //check if Facebook Account is linked
  {
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Unable to Tweet!" message:@"Please login to Twitter in your device settings." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [alert show];
        return;
  }
  //self.mySLComposerSheet = [[SLComposeViewController alloc] init]; //initiate the Social Controller
  self.mySLComposerSheet = [SLComposeViewController composeViewControllerForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter];
  [self.mySLComposerSheet setInitialText:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"I found this Thing, check it out at this Place:\n %@ \n", [self someplace]]];
  [self.mySLComposerSheet addImage:self.photos.firstObject];

  [self presentViewController:self.mySLComposerSheet animated:YES completion:nil];
  //}

  [self.mySLComposerSheet setCompletionHandler:^(SLComposeViewControllerResult result) {
        NSString *output;
        switch (result) {
              case SLComposeViewControllerResultCancelled:
                    output = @"Action Cancelled";
                    break;
              case SLComposeViewControllerResultDone:
                    output = @"Post Successfull";
                    break;
              default:
                    break;
        } //check if everything worked properly. Give out a message on the state.
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Twitter" message:output delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [alert show];
  }];
}
