In So Many Words

Have you joined Plurk yet? Like Twitter, only different, Plurk offers an easy way to see who is responding to each plurk and has interesting features like qualifiers, emoticons and karma.

With both of these, I find I am a casual user and can tend to lurk more than participate, but I will say that I have found a couple of new blogs and some cool websites just from reading plurk conversations, which was an unexpected benefit to me!

One of the things I found through a response to a plurk from user DaisyOlsen is Plurktionary, which is an unofficial plurk dictionary and help page. There is a video on the front page which is a really clear explanation of how it works, and she has a pretty insightful review of Plurk on her blog. From clicking around to some of the other pages on the site, I found a link to a FriendFeed Greasemonkey script for Plurk, which is awesome! This blog, The Inquisitor, also has scripts to place a tab for several other services inside FriendFeed.

If you are on any of these networks, look me up and follow me/subscribe to me/add me as a friend!
