| scobleizer | asks | why are there a lot more women on Plurk than have friended me on Twitter or FriendFeed? |
| daynah | says | because Plurk is pretty and colorful! |
| Joe|Gegs | says | plurk is interactive, |
| jjprojects | I've noticed there are a lot more men than wormen on Friendfeed, in the conversations anyway. |
| jjprojects | There are just as many women on Twitter though I think. Maybe it's the kind of conversations you have scobleizer, not sure. |
| web2marketing | says | because here they can talk till their karma drops - like real life |
| lisacu00 | says | conversational yet personal, I find plurk |
| tcw115 | says | Don't ask why just go with it. |
| jjprojects | The conversation is a lot less fromal here, that's for sure. |
| jjprojects | fromal = formal |
| Theo | says | you may check Plurkmania for some nice stats |
| TheNose100 | says | Plurk makes you look skinny. |
| Jena | says | because the knitting community (we're a powerful blogging force, too) have embraced Plurk. |
| thunderror | says | gossip |
| Madame Maracas | Dunno, following ya in all three places |
| Amie | says | plurk is interactive. And shiny. I have noticed that FF in particular seems very male (although I am there, too) |
| LindaZ | says | did you notice how scoble starts a plurk and does not participate? |
| sillypixie | says | good question. I'm here because the interactions I have on plurk seem to have more value than a scrolling scream of tweets... |
| marywallace | says | plurk is a party |
| peterkim | asks | is that a bad thing, Robert? |
| aleighanne | says | because you are more adorable on plurk |
| ElizabethPW | says | plurk is much more pretty than friendfeed. weird that it matters, but I think that's one reason. and little emoticons. |
| Djinn1973 | says | Not sure how many "women" there are but there sure are a lot of people using female names... |
| Madame Maracas | has | a working set of ovaries & prefers an interface that WORKS, ability to follow conversations & back track (that working part) of Plurk. |
| keane | Plurk has |
| LindaZ | says | he is still not participating... |
| TheDudeDean | says | They are hear for my dancing banana. |
| iceicepengy | says | that's right. Can't live without the dancing banana! |
| Madame Maracas | thinks | Plurk = potassium and we're all needing some extra, hence the banana situation |
| RogueTess | hopes scobleizer has the patience 2 read and respond to plurks (incl his own) cuz that's how to build your community and have a GREAT time! |
| margalit | says | Plurk is more of a women's platform than Twitter. It's more interactive and thus has deeper conversations. |
| bryansays | says | They like the pretty colors, avatars, and timeline. |
| zenith | says | way to go with the stereotypes! A woman here who isn't particularly impressed by 'pretty colour' and hates the timeline. |
| LindaZ | says | and he certainly does not need to build community he already has his following, are we not continuing this conversation without him |
| DS♥ | wants | to know if someone really plurked that women can't ressit *the dancing banana*? |
| PurpleCar | This is the stupidest, sexist conversation I've seen in social media to date. The jokes don't strike me as funny. |
| PurpleCar | most sexist* |
| ays | shares | PurpleCar's opinion |
| PurpleCar | It's fine to observe the demographics, but it isn't ok to joke like this. Replace the comments to be making fun of a race; see how bad it is |
| Myrnaslist | says | lindaz you know how a dog pees all around when you're walking him? He's just simply marking his territory. Dogs don't care so much about |
| Myrnaslist | says | CONVERSATION |
| DS♥ | disagrees with the *dog pee* analogy. *dog pee* is a conversation. |
| iceicepengy | says | some was sexist, but I laughed at the dancing banana joke! |
| RogueTess | says | I'm gonna mute this thread now. Why build up scobleizer's karma???? |
| PurpleCar | Especially not for this idiocy. |
| bryansays | says | does muting people lower their Karma? |
| martinbogo | after the first ten mutes in a day, it seems to |
| davidlynch79 | says | because the default is set to female |
| digitaltodd | says | davidlynch79 www.smileyhut.com/laughing/rofl.gif |
| DBM | says | Because us women like the karma thing |
| DBM | says | Just read - target audience is women so they are doing a good idea reaching us. Of interest....I joined because I got.... |
| DBM | says | a notification from indenti.ca that another woman wanted to friend me here. Is that how they do it? |
| captainahab | says | aye, beauties be plentiful in thee plurk lands. Why thee be pointing at me Scobleizer? |
| nobabe | says | the answer is: because Plurk is more EMOTIONAL .... |
| MikeLewis | says | Plurk encourages people to post thoughts and feelings. Why would a woman not love a service like this. |
| MikeLewis | says | besides, all people talk about on Friendfeed is Friendfeed. You're going to bore a woman and a lot of men real quick with endless bantor. |
| CreativeSage | says | I actually prefer FriendFeed to Plurk so far, and I'm not sure it's divided by gender. I have about equal female and male friends on both. |
| CreativeSage | says | I'll add that the conversation on Plurk seems a little bit less techie than FriendFeed, but I just got on Plurk. |
| hrkovar | says | i follow you on twitter- |
| johntindale | says | maybe thats why i like it on here |
| Hall0w | says | good question. |
| Sheryl | says | women like the pretty emoticons? (Ok, enough with the dumb women comments) Women and men think and interact differently. It could be simple |
| MapleMama | says | because I'd rather be a plurkette than a tweetette. |
| FreeTV | says | What makes you sure they are REALLY women? |
| sandi | says | are u sure with what u think?? |
| iCultur | says | shouldnt complain about that |
| sandi | says | *hihihi*. don't u love it?? |
| CreativeSage | says | I've friended you here, too, Robert. I think you still have to friend me back. |
| johnbudnik | says | My female friends prefer Plurk to FF or Twitter. There's something about the emoticons and backgrounds that appeals to them |
| HighDef™ | says | it's probably due to Plurk being a much better platform in all ways, and because you're such a manly stud. |
| Leoparditor | because your hot!!!!! I love you plurkmale |
| etorsten | because it´s much more conversational than twitter and not so "ego-centered" |
| elise_caile | says | yeah. the studmuffin part. |
| mkeeffer | says | Because we're smart and you're a babe, Bob! |
| elise_caile | wants | to know if you still think plurk is only going to be popular with 14-year-old girls (per a june post she just read via a blog). |
| elise_caile | *grins* |
| xhan | plurk has pink themes! |
| elise_caile | says | haha. we need some sparklies too, for added effect. |
| ppmartin | can't believe this Plurk from 4th of July is still getting comments a month and a half later! |
| fdossantos | says | I don't know, you charismatic devil! |
| rosevictor | thinks | maybe people Are relizeing that your on here now i think that a good answer |
| MarillaAnne | because it's fun, fast, organized, easy, wonderful ... and full of other brilliant company |
| MarillaAnne | It's actual conversation and i don't have to jump all over the place to follow a thread. ... i really love that. |
| loususi | feels | plurk is natural plurk is fun plurk is best ... |
| Feld | because you don't spam them on plurk? |
| Feld | jkjk |
