So depressed to here that something better than twitter is around. I simply revere Twitter. But it’s frequent outages were getting pretty snaggy. you’re right there.
On recommendation by your review will try out plurk.
Thanks.

Thanks vimoh. Indeed! Maybe it’s the “Where are you now” concept of the two systems.

Well, I can’t speak for either side on that. The wind can blow either way.

I find it strange that plurk is even compared to Twitter. But that’s subjective I guess. These are two very different services going in two very different directions.

All valid points. The most valid of them being the one about the simplicity of twitter.

I think Plurk can be bigger than Twitter but it has a long way to go.
