alvin is Feb 09, 2009 02:13PM talking to some teens about plurk in departure gate. They are going to Taiwan too. Having difficulty explaining 'what else plurk can do'.

alvin says Feb 09, 2009 06:14AM so here's the open question. if we are to evolve plurk as a product, which direction do you want to see us heading?
pritcharddesign Feb 09, 2009 06:17AM I don't know what you'd do business-wise, but my view of plurk is that it's different from anything else because it becomes a real community
pritcharddesign Feb 09, 2009 06:17AM where people care what happens to each other. When something goes wrong, people come around for support. When things go well, everyone
pritcharddesign Feb 09, 2009 06:18AM cheers. I would love to meet my plurk friends. A RW plurk party/convention would be fabulous.
alvin says Feb 09, 2009 06:20AM pritcharddesign: that's a good point. i'm giving a talk in Philippines this april on using microblogging as a business tool this April.
alvin says Feb 09, 2009 06:20AM Handling support and customer feedbacks are two major potential usages in my slides.
vdub144 says Feb 09, 2009 01:57PM I'm not so sure its much a microblog (in practice). I think of it like a threaded discussion board w/ only one main topic area. Better tools
vdub144 says Feb 09, 2009 01:57PM to find ppl w/ similar interests or manage multiple interests would be a great improvement to a great product.
vdub144 says Feb 09, 2009 01:58PM The SecondLife location nod was one of these, but very limited to SL, & knocks out RL geo connections. Needs to be better way...
pritcharddesign Feb 09, 2009 02:05PM I agree...I wouldn't call it a blog at all. It's all about discussion. That's the very best part. People are here and not Twitter because
pritcharddesign Feb 09, 2009 02:05PM they know they're talking to *people* and will hear back from them!
