Stoked that I just broke the 10 karma point barrier.

Dang. 9.02 karma. Just short of 10.

is there any rhyme or reason to the vertical position of a Plurk on the timeline?

the timeline along the bottom should be listed in X mins ago for the most recent Plurks. Easier to scan that way.

I'm not sure I want to have to select a verb every time I post either.

This stinks. I can't get Plurk to access my GMail account.

I can see how Plurk has made def improvements to the microblogging paradigm. However, I find it harder to scan. Maybe I just need to adapt.
