about the value of plurk vs. twitter? Right now - Twitter wins. Too much personal info rather than ed info in Plurk. What am I doing wrong?
I believe it depends on who you follow. I enjoy some of the personal info, but love the conversations and education info that is shared.
You can unfollow plurks if someone is not posting info you want on your timeline. Or mute plurks if you don't need to see each update.
