DaisyOlsen says Jun 21, 2008 07:32PM apparently some on Twitter are starting an anti-plurk movement. I can't help but wonder why they feel the need to do this.
DaisyOlsen Jun 21, 2008 07:35PM it's sort of an underground thing. I'm picking it up in dribs and drabs. Some are adding berets to their pics to show support...
PlurkingPoppa Jun 21, 2008 07:35PM wonders if conflict wasn't fun, why humans would be doing it for all of their recorded history?
PlurkingPoppa thinks Jun 21, 2008 07:38PM that dazcox just uttered fighting words... let me run over to Twitter and quote you!
HighDef thinks Jun 21, 2008 07:38PM those beret-wearing Tweeters had better be careful lest they be mistaken for French-lovers.
DaisyOlsen Jun 21, 2008 07:46PM Been more than a week LOL It's apparently a very exclusive group. They don't want spies I guess.
HighDef Jun 21, 2008 07:46PM quotes: "The root of all enmity is ignorance". I'm sure that applies to the beret-wearing anti-plurk twit contingent.
jkrabbit Jun 21, 2008 07:53PM ppl get use to a format , like aim or yahoo, some of those ppl don't know what twitter is
DaisyOlsen Jun 21, 2008 07:54PM would appreciate not having her Twitter rep ruined. I do a good job of that without help
MoBarger says Jun 21, 2008 07:54PM an interesting difference between them is google picks up tweets by default; plurks are not.
PlurkingPoppa Jun 21, 2008 08:01PM promises that he won't mention the name of DaisyOlsen "on my scout's honour!" (uncrossing fingers now)
seerysm says Jun 21, 2008 08:57PM I don't talk about Plurk on Twitter anymore, was excited 2 share my experience w/ people I thought would be interested at first, but no more
margalit says Jun 21, 2008 09:54PM Just went to check it out, and it's OVER CAPACITY. I hate that frigging whale!
Veribatim says Jun 21, 2008 10:09PM Its pretty amazing how people take things so out of context. I can't say I'm surprised.
Calaelen Jun 21, 2008 10:29PM like scoble said: Twitter is for posting what you are doing (going to shower) and not for conversations!
Lumpit asks Jun 22, 2008 12:19AM how the f do you have real conversations on Twitter anyway? Plurk is designed for conversations! Twitter is for saying what you're drinking
lizwebpage says Jun 22, 2008 01:12AM I KNOW! WTH is WRONG with those people! Can't they just get ALONG! C'mon, let's all sing Kum By Ya now and join hands!
lizwebpage says Jun 22, 2008 01:21AM really, peeps, you're not taking this seriously, are you? B/c we are certainly not serious! It's a JOKE! \
pprlisa says Jun 22, 2008 01:31AM yes, clearly we both have plurk accounts - cant go without the new shiny thing - but chill pls, we are just makin our peeps laugh
lizwebpage Jun 22, 2008 02:46AM Y'know, there is nothing exclusive ever on Twitter. Please if you see me, feel free to jump right in. Really, just say hi anytime!
DaisyOlsen is Jun 22, 2008 03:04AM glad to hear you are having fun. And I didn't mean to take anything out of context. Proof that conversations are harder on Twitter LOL
DaisyOlsen Jun 22, 2008 03:06AM I'm quite amused. I've been complaining today about how uptight Twitter seems to me now
lizwebpage says Jun 22, 2008 03:24AM sorry if we seemed uptight. Really, everything was meant in jest. We are silly people, truly, check out my stream! Heee!
DaisyOlsen Jun 22, 2008 03:25AM means Twitter in General is more uptight, I think it's very easy to lose important pieces of information because of the way it's set up.
pprlisa says Jun 22, 2008 03:29AM no, youre right, Liz is an uptight PITA. ignore her here, on twitter, everywhere...
DaisyOlsen Jun 22, 2008 03:30AM ha! See my real plan was to get the two of you on Plurk. Yeah...that's it...
pprlisa says Jun 22, 2008 03:34AM I still dont get it - it just doesnt work for me - UI is too confusing but too each his own
