Twitter Vs. Plurk

Let's compare twitter to plurk and plurk to twitter. LOL.
Let's start with my favorite. :)

Plurk
has super cute emoticons! Like these:(lmao) (hungry)(funkydance)(yahoo)(ninja)(angry)

(dance)




and a lot lot more.
Twitter
has none. :(

Plurk
uses timeline (which is so cool) to see the your plurks and other people's plurks or in the simplest form, the so-called updates.
Twitter
uses.. i don't know. Basta it's like a list.

Plurk
I think, is harder to use/figure out than twitter
Twitter
is ofcourse, easier to use. Or should I say convenient?

Plurk
Has this thing called "karma". It goes up when you do quality plurking and goes down when you are inactive. [FYI, high karma gives you the access to use super super cute emoticons! :)]
Twitter
They don't have karma that goes up and down. You can update anytime you want without having to worry about your karma [cause they don't have it] getting low. :)

Plurk
is for commoners..
Twitter
is for celebrities. Haha! Or those people who want to follow celebrities. xD Hollywood stars have their twitter accounts too! Megan Fox, P. Diddy, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Lil Wayne, Blake Lively, Oprah, Ryan Seacrest, Ashton Kutcher, Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dogg, etc. [Btw, those are the celebrities that I follow. Haha!]

Plurk
has a wide variety of layouts to choose from.
Twitter
has only a few layouts.

Plurk
[I think] it's easier to respond to other plurks. It's almost similar to chatting.
Twitter
when you respond to people's tweets, it will be automatically your update.

Plurk
lets you give a title for your site
Twitter
Candice Laquian (kendizstar) on Twitter is forever your site title.

Plurk
cannot send updates with pictures via mobile
Twitter
can. I think? Haha!

Plurk
Some of the plurkers only want to chat with somebody. Most times, their plurks only say : Goodmorning! Hello! And other greetings. And they wait for somebody to respond on their plurk. [Only the bisaya people do that. xD]
Twitter
Twitters' updates contains sensible stuff, at least. You will never see their updates saying just plain goodmorning.

Plurk
their symbol are cute monsters. Or what they call, "creatures"
Twitter
their symbol is a bird. :)

Plurk
you can customize your widget's color
Twitter
You can't. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Plurk
no applications.
Twitter
They have applications that I know nothing about. But I've heard about the tweetdeck, it's a game.

Plurk
you can't change your URL, but you can change your nickname
Twitter
you can change your URL anytime you want

Plurk
is for the net adiccts and certified bums!
Twitter
is for.. busy people. Kasi nga, you don't have to update every single date.


I can't think of anything anymore. Biased much ba? XD Yes, I love plurk than twitter. And would you believe that plurk makes me inexplicably happy? :))

Twitternatics, don't get mad at me okay? This is my blog, and these are my thoughts! XD
