• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:18 Veribatim says Yeah, I wish it let you add as friends..
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:19 andyb56 yeah added all my contacts as fans shame about the friends thing.

• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:21 bloggersblog says i see. That probably explains why i suddenly have a bunch of fans. People must be using the Twitter import tool.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:23 nethead says worked great for me...as long as they had the same uesr name in both places
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:23 The_Rooster says yeah - worked after a few tries - and agree about the fan thing - should be friends
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:23 nethead says but yes, sad it's as fan
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:25 bloggersblog thinks joel must have been plurking while bloggersblog was sleeping.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:26 Tiffy ♡ has tried plurk's twitter import. i already added fans (is that what it's called here?)
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:28 bloggersblog says if you fan someone you get their updates but they don't get yours.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 11:29 Tiffy ♡ thinks that people will add her as well after XD

• 
  June 08, 2008 at 12:29 Rubab says yups it is good.. i tried
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 12:39 milwaukeeseo says works like a charm..in fact, I'm now your fan here on Plurk through the Twitter Import.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 12:58 nikjones says it seems to work OK so far!!! Now only if I could post using Moodblast
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 12:59 bloggersblog says hi milwaukeeseo
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 12:59 Georgiana says she is not aware of the twitter import thing. hmmm will go look now.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:00 bloggersblog says i have not tried Moodblast. You can post using to plurk and twitter using ping.fm (beta code is landofping)
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:01 Georgiana says it does not allow you to friend just fan them.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:01 bloggersblog says i know You could right click and open in new tab and friend but kind of a pain.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:02 Venus says no, I'm way behind. stupid real life
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:04 Georgiana says life COULD be simpler online.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:09 Konstantino says I'm going to have to click all their profiles to add them as friends now...
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:11 Konstantino says Oh crap, now that I added them as fans the tool won't find them anymore, so I can't add them as friends :/
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:13 Georgiana says maybe you could UNfan them konstantino?
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:41 dangrsmind says can't get it to work, but Twitter is up. Hmm.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 13:44 mikesgroove thinks it is kind of annoying that you have to navigate to every "fans" page to add them as a friend
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:04 wisekaren says It worked to make them fans, but how to make them friends now?
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:11 mikesgroove says you have to go to each fan's profile page and add them from there
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:12 ScrapNancy says at least it let me know who was here that I didn't realize...it's a start!
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:12 dangrsmind says if you can get it to work in the first place. I am I the only one for whom it won't work?
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:12 dangrsmind says trying alternate browser...
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:21 markzero says I did. Unfortunately it both matched people who weren't the same purely by username (Mat on Twitter is a guy, and Mat on Plurk is a girl)...
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:22 markzero says and also listed people who follow me on Twitter, butt hat I don't follow.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:23 tmatzner says worked well for me, but not from my mobile...
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:26 bloggersblog says yeah not everyone has the exact same name here.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 14:58 ScrapNancy says its how I found out you were here!
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 15:00 bloggersblog says hi NancyNally
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 15:01 ScrapNancy asks oh wait, does that make me sound stalkerish?
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 15:01 MarinesEtwas says did. And worked like a charm.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 15:04 bloggersblog says no
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 15:06 JAG says nice didnt know you could search your twitter friends.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 18:14 MichDdot says yes it worked
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 18:17 Swamp_Daddy yes, it ads the as fans not friends
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 18:54 onepinktee says didn't work for me for a good 16-18 hours, but it seems limited when it does work
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 18:59 Theo says Fans are OK, but bringing them on to plurk as friends will rock!
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:00 Swamp_Daddy agrees with theob
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:02 Rammi has tried it. The trouble is, the people I follow tend to have changed their usernames and avatars on Plurk. I ish confuzzled.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:05 Swamp_Daddy says bad prakesha, your not supposed to do that
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:06 Rammi hates trying to find out who people are on here.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:12 Swamp_Daddy shares with prakesha that plurk=super crack, addiction is a given
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:13 GabbieG I did it worked great!! ^_^
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:24 LEMills says that the Plurk team wants us all to "friend" only those we know personally. As if that works anywhere anymore. But hence the fan-only add.
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:25 LEMills says if you go into your settings, I think you can alter that status fairly easily. And it certainly alters the alerts (with fandom)
• 
  June 08, 2008 at 19:25 dandellion yes. it worked after third try.
• 
  June 09, 2008 at 03:23 Sueblimely says Worked well - I am happy to not add all twitter contacts as friends
• 
  June 09, 2008 at 03:27 lillypad says I did, it was really great, lots of Twitter users on Plurk.
