Plurk is naturally more social while Twitter is a great communication tool. However, I just want to point out that one of your earlier commenters seems like a complete hypocrite to me. One of Twitter's main flaws is what Plurk provides - the ability to comment on someone's "plurk" in a much easier-to-follow format than how we "@" reply to a tweet. This particular person jumped into a discussion that I was having with someone else that had ~nothing~ to do with her, proceeded to call me ignorant (Hello, pot? This is the Kettle...) and then announced that she was unfollowing me (which I am grateful for! not sure why she followed me in the first place) but then, after all her craziness, to which I never bothered replying to) she @replies one more time to say, "Plurk is a lovely platform, have you tried it?" What the heck does that mean? Is she banishing me from Twitter? Is Plurk the JV to her Varsity team? For someone who comes across as being all "hearts and flowers" here, I sure experienced something completely different and quite creepy... not to mention a little immature. Either way, I'm a happy resident of both the "Twitterverse" and "Plurkistan" ... and am rather happy to not have the misunderstandings that arise out of uninformed people entering in on half a conversation. That's all I wanted to say. Thanks. =) I also use both sites for very different reasons. Plurk is naturally more social while Twitter is a great communication tool.

One of Twitter’s main flaws is what Plurk provides - the ability to comment on someone’s “plurk” in a much easier-to-follow format than how we “@” reply to a tweet.

Seriously - I love both tools. I enjoy the people I know on both communities. When one is down, I miss it. When I am swamped, I find it hard to keep up on either. Weeks like this where I am traveling, I bob in to whichever I get to first - update and go on. I do belive that they are useful for different things. BUT I won't give up either until they pull my mouse from my cold dead hands! ;) Kathy Jacobss last blog post..<a href="http://geekswithblogs.net/VitaminCH/archive/2008/07/15/hireme.aspx">Hire me…</a> callkathy *loves* LA REVOLUCION!
