Do the Plurk Talk!
I just signed up with Plurk today. I’m still a bit lost, but I’m still learning. Plurk looks interesting, I love its timeline look!
If you got your Plurk accounts already, add me up. Here’s my link:

I’m sharing my Plurk page – I think that’s supposed to get you signed up and get you signed up as my loyal fan.

I haven’t decided yet to put up that Plurk widget in each of my blogs. I want that widget to blend neatly with my account. From my experience in changing blog’s layouts, tweaking layouts takes time. So I just thought I’d put out a blog post that I am also in Plurk too.
Leaving Twitter? Hell no!
I’ve seen some Plurkers submit their plurks in Twitters – uhmm… they could submit the same Tweet or Plurk in Twitter in just one click. I think this has to do with a third-party plugin or website. Well, if you had figured this thing out then let me know – through the comments, or just Twitter or Plurk that out.. hehehe. So far, I only signed up using a Ping.fm account so that I can update all my social networks in a click – or so…
By the way, are you following me already in Twitter? Don’t miss my tweets!

Seems a lot of people I know and met recently are all using Plurk. When I first heard about it, I was like – fork? plork? what? LOL. Got to try this one na rin.

I’ve always thought of Plurk being like Twitter…. albeit on drugs. It is so demanding. It is always flashing, “3502 new messages.” At least with Twitter I ignore it when I am busy – and with a minimum of guilt.

Will add you, too.
I use HelloTxt.com when I want to submit the same update to all my social networks — which include Twitter and Plurk.
Are you on the new Yahoo! Profiles, too?

oh I do not know both plurk and twitter
before when i was just freely blogging at the free hosted wordpress, i did not care much about any of these, but when i moved to today, since we were paid by the number of unique visits and for one post a day (yet i can not post everyday, duh!) i started to look into social networking sites. i joined but never got successful since i think they are complicated for me. until now, am still lost with stumble and i know i owe you an email Gem. the only thing i can do is EC yet i can not do even a 150! and now i am complaining i have backaches, for i never before stay in computer too long.

Hi Gem… like Bechai, I am at lost also in this department. EC is my only expertise because it’s not complicated [but it took me awhile too before I get the whole logic about EC]. I signed up for twitter before too and still I don’t know how it works. I am lazy in reading instruction that is one reason to my ignorance i had to admit now, i dont know my username for twitter… any advise on that? thanks

Gem thanks a lot for the stumble, wow, now, i really have to figure out how to put the stumble toolbar in my IE and Safari. Right now, I depend more on the stumble widget found in posts since that is easiest for me, but I also do not see the stumble widget in your post.

Thanks! Though, I actually plurked that instruction long ago (I decided not to write about it). However, I don’t use that feature because I’m turned off with the plurk link that comes after the plurked tweet.
I prefer ping.fm for it, because it’s neat and can do an update over several social networks. Here’s my previous post I’ve written about ping.fm last year, if you hadn’t seen it here: Plurk, Twitter, Facebook: Get Ping.fm to Rule Them All
