Plurk is like irc meets web 2.0 - Presto Irc 2.0 The visual years.

Ah, good point

I've already done a couple of Plurk stories, but I could always squeeze another out...

Toss me a line at sbspalding@gmail.com I'm most interested in what you think differentiates these two messaging systems.

twitter is like standing on a stage, making an announcement and then taking q&a's. Plurk is like going to a party with a lot of good friends

that's probably why it's so addictive. I'd much rather have interaction than just announcements.
