I’m on Plurk
June 5, 2009 | Blogging, Internet
My friends, Amy and Shiela invited me to join them on Plurk. I ignored their invites at first because I find it to be non-sense. What’s the point of telling other people all over the globe about what you’re doing, feeling, thinking, etc?
But when Amy told me that she had helped a friend in need because of Plurk (I will not discuss further more about it), then I said to myself, I’ll give it a try. I joined Plurk and post some responses. And I somehow enjoyed it! I invited some of my friends who are outside of the country to join because I think it is a convenient way to communicate, get updates of what is happening to them, and share some information about our friends here in the Philippines. It’s fun!
For those of you who don’t know anything about Plurk; Plurk is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows users to send updates (otherwise known as plurks) through short messages or links, which can be up to 140 text characters in length.
Updates are then shown on the user’s home page using a timeline which lists all the updates received in chronological order, and delivered to other users who have signed up to receive them. Users can respond to other users’ updates from their timeline through the Plurk.com website, by instant messaging, or by text messaging. (reference: Wikipedia)
If you want to blog but hate to write longer posts, Plurk is the best thing for you. It’s fun, easy to use and has a very simple layout. Give it a try.
