no websites are allowed to hate on Leo!

Overload (already?!)

dont feel bad, leo. took me 8 hours to figure out how to follow all my favorite tech stars.

It broe on me earlier! Says overloading or something.

leo laporte is too popular for his own good.

travesty!

Seems to be working now, lol

It's being buggy. Works great for awhile then goes weird.

I would hate you too if you were trying to kill me

well, you posted this ... how'd that work

BTW, this is what I just plurked, will it be able to handle the load it will get now that it has been TWIT'd?

Plurk does have some cache issues-- may make it seem more confusing than it is.

I havent had a single problem and I've been mucking about with it all morning.

Ah... the trick is to get things all set up when you Americans are asleep

i can't search for my friends using screen names aak!

you seem to be doing well, and least better than me

I can't even edit my profile info. It just reloads the page and nothing happens.

if Scoble joins, I'm sure you'll be off the blacklist very fast. hehehehe

plurk is kind of useless. cool but useless.

plurk has become stable again some hours ago. They did post an explanaition: www.plurk.com/p/1q98

there are some details in the Plurg blog about today's spike and what they are doing about the new traffic. blog.plurk.com/

your mktg efforts were too successful for their own good!

Schwarz link worked for me

there does seem to be a few bugs, but the idea behind it is good, even if it is very similar to twitter.

They were still on their test server until leo showed up.

It's 'cause scobleizer just subscribed, I'm sure of it

I'm not sure any of these sites are really going to work until we start paying for them.

similar? I thought it was a twitter skin.

This is becoming like a chat. Is this what it's meant for?

The only thing similar is the big text box to post Plurks! Nothing else. lol

the 140 charachters and subscribing to friends and followers and such. more chatlike than twitter tho. hard to see this as an sms app

Hi Leo, from a traceback dump, it appears plurk is python based. It has already error off several times. not completely baked yet...

I'm enjoying the timeline design. Although I would like to be able to search for people somehow.

when leo says jump, we say how high

on the way down artoudeetou

leolaporte, it must be that red star. you know in soviet russia, you don't wear red stars, red stars wear you.

You HAD to say it, blackfeathers, lol.

Dang it Leo. Please interview these guys on Net@Nite. I would really like it, and I think a bunch of others would too!

oo yes, net@night interview!

lasha, you know it

like this whole site is giving me a headache

he had only a fraction of your followers allready.

leo's plurk is an oxymoron

he's going to waste a lot of time here

it's not a waste if you enjoy it

I hope my boss feels the same way

I had some problems trying to post something while watch TWiT

i get alerts for leos replys...tell me how to stop it, too much

go to his profile, check 'Don't follow leolaporte's plurks'

hahahahahahahahaha warko. imagine what leo would go through if he like left plurk for 24 hours and came back. tons of "unread"

it would be a nice feature to opt out of chats

You know like a way to close out all responses to a chat. Or maybe you can see others plurks and then have the option to see the replies.

i agree. very much so. yet the ones i havent been replying too, i find that if i keep getting the "unread" thing i start replying later on

give it time

Yes just give it time

scoble is a one-man set of friend replies self-contained in one 'friend' unit on twitter. if he catches on here, it would be more confusing

try it for a coupple of weeks

You folks still jivin in here?

Or, maybe I should bounce around to another window? Ha.

it is still night in america, so they will probably show up again later today

Do you know if Plurk is a US company?

its about 2:50 am cst

That's my timezone, too.

its not it its FEAR

Plurk is based in canada

but members of the dev team come from all over the world including russia and denmark

There goes the neighborhood

One whole day and you aren't number one in Karma. Obviously they do hate you.

welcome to the club Leo

leo sure is up early... Plurk is neat

Plurk may hate you, but Twitter hates everyone.

"Engage Leo shields". Divert all power to rear deflectors

Who needs stress test when you have Mr Laporte around?

wondering where blamelaporte.com is?

plurk doesn't like me..can't get profile to save.

computerwheelie how about try adding birth date? I heard that will solve the issue?

I agree with Flavio

Leo has already broken Plurk! Look at the "friends" view, they must not have counted on anyone having 1500+ friends!

servers are acting glitchy again!

what r u talking about

noticing some server trouble the past several minutes. It's working off and on

it probably hates me too

sorry guys, we were finalizing our new web boxes setup here and not it is over.

the idea is (i believe) that your friends are people you are really friends with, and your fans are people who want to follow...

can't imagine I would want to see 1000+ people's pluks... not even sure I'd want to see 100+

working great now

its all those dang emoticons!

surprised by that animated emoticon.

*OHHHHHHHH*
