Plurk

I stumbled upon Plurk from a guildmate of mine, she had it being displayed on her signature in our forum for a couple of days without me thinking, what's this? When it was time where a lot of my friends started Plurking around, I decided to join in to see what fun they were having. First I registered at plurk.com. Then I saw a timeline where I could input whatever I wanted on it, just like a diary in chronological order. Neat, right? Well, it would not become a diary unless you specify it that only you can see it. Other than that, others, friends or someone from the other side of the world can see your entries and comment on them.

So here I am, wandering around the site and then stumbled on this "Karma" pointing system. So the more Karma you have, the more features you could add to your plurking capabilities. Achieve a certain Karma point, the features are unlocked at your disposal. You may think that bringing up your karma up is easy, think again.

Karma rises whenever you update your profile, add friends, comment on others plurks, invite others to join you in plurk, and other things that you wish to do may increase your karma. However, overdoing the plurking post and commenting with spams may decrease your karma points. How? I don't know. Posting 30 plurks in one day does decrease karma, so just plurk about quality things such as a significant event that just happened or probably plurk about your thoughts that can reel in those comments.

My two day experience with plurk was a great one and I'm looking forward to continuing using it for as long as it is up. Great site, good way to converse with others, and above all, it's really fun.

Try it @ www.plurk.com
