Of all the microblogging sites existing on the web, Plurk is the best! I had first joined twitter and i wont say i don’t like it, but i prefer plurking to twittering!Twittering nowadays has become so formal whereas plurk acts as a social journal.It’s true that plurking is addicting but it’s fun!

Hi, Cesar. Having the ability to customise more on Plurk is definitely a perk. I like the look of Pownce, but never really got in to it. I go there occasionally just to add folks, or to respond to direct messages.

Melissa: Yeah… there’s something about Plurk that really suits some folks. And, so far, it’s definitely hitting the right marks for me for the most part. I still like Twitter & Facebook. But, for different reasons.

@Kari – That will always be the challenge. I’ve got friends/contacts all over the place. But, it really depends on where you find yourself the happiest. I’ve got accounts on just about every social network available (well, almost!). But, I don’t participate actively in all of them. I maintain them to stay in touch w/certain types of people – and to keep my profile available in different places (’cause it’s part of the job ). I usually just have 1 or 2 where I’m most active. The rest… well, I go there when I can. Or, if I want a break – or need some kind of distraction.

@Sasha: Yeah – agree with you on that. I just find Plurk a bit more ‘home-y’.

Nicola: Can empathise with you there. I guess it depends on where the majority of your contacts are. And, where you feel happiest and most connected. There are pros & cons to all these social networks. And, you just gotta find what works best for you.

I would really agree with you on all what you said on this post. Now that plurk has added the CSS capabilities on editing profiles I’m sure it will be more addictive than any other microblogging service (pownce has this feature but for pro users only).
