These are concepts that our mind prefers over things like Twitter, which are indistinct and lacking in any real context.

When I first saw Plurk in action, I realized straight away that we were in the unique position of actually being able to see memes in action — as real things and not their traces, such as back-links and comments.

Now, combine Plurk with FriendFeed and all of sudden the depth & breadth of your timeline becomes apparent, as the conversations you begin fan out, melding into other social networking services, creating a rich, largely seamless mesh of discussions.

There’s no doubting that Plurk is a game changer. And even if for some reason Plurk was to just vanish — which I very much doubt — the genie is out of the bottle and someone else would just pick up where they left off.

You can’t unthink a good idea…

Personally, I find Twitter much easier to scan for what’s going on. Plurk does not lend itself to this. Plus, the topics I see are either meta (about Plurk, or Plurk vs. Twitter, etc) or personal – like sharing videos or whatnot.

Just my two cents.
