Plurk résistera-t-il a Twitter ? (même pas en rêve) Monday 14 July 2008 à 21:13 — by Guest Vous connaissez certainement Plurk, ce service de micro-blogging a la Twitter qui a connu un engouement certain il y a quelques semaines. Arrivé parmi un large panel de sites au concept similaire, celui-ci a néanmoins été projeté sur le devant de la scène Web 2.0 grâce aux mésaventures qu’a subi son principal concurrent. Mais qu’en est-il réellement aujourd’hui, maintenant que ce dernier a retrouvé une certaine s... lire la suite

But plurk is more like Twitter than like a cheese log. For one thing, both plurk and twitter only allow 140-character posts. Why that number? It’s not even a power of 2. Plurk also enables some threading. So, at the moment, I’m plurking. And twittering. And occasionally FaceBooking.
The best thing with which to mock a company that shouldn't exist is a company that doesn't actually exist. And San Francisco's Internet hipsters won't just snicker about your startup behind your back; they'll do it where your vanity Google Blog Alerts will find it. Plurk is only the latest target — a startup that lets users post short updates to the Web, as Twitter does, but adds a timeline.
Un petit nouveau fait du bruit ces jours-ci dans l'univers du microblogging. C'est Plurk qui tente de profiter des mauvaises performances et instabilités de Twitter pour lui prendre des parts de marché. Y aller ou pas ?

A tout cela, il existe maintenant un remède :
Si vous utilisez Twitter, vous savez sans doute que ce service éprouve actuellement de nombreuses difficultés. Pannes régulières, impossibilité d’utiliser GTalk ou tout autre service de messagerie Internet pour envoyer un commentaire ou suivre des contacts.

Not happy with updating your friends publicly via Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Pownce and Jaiku (and feeding all those updates into FriendFeed)? Then, um, try Plurk, a startup which declares, "We've taken the time, the complexity, and the deep introspection required out of blogging. Also, too, the irony.
Everywhere I go on Twitter everyone is talking about Plurk right now! exclaims tireless neo-camgirl Sarah Austin, the videoblogger formerly known as Sarah Meyers, and before that Sarah Austin. In this video report, filed via some future-fantastic combination of Web services and mobile-phone video live from the street in Manhattan, Sarah not only gets the story, she almost gets hit by a car.
With all the recent outages and downtime over at Twitter (no doubt stirred up because of my recent article on How to Use Twitter for Business), many people have been checking out Plurk, a similar but different approach with the same 140 character limit. There are some interesting twists with the Plurk approach.

Hmmm, is this the first Twitter business card? Heheh. Thanks to Hugh Macleod, my favorite London artist. What does the other side say? You’ve been Microscobleized. All in honor of creating my global microbrand. Oh, and that’s Ben Metcalfe’s face. Update:
I realize that folks are concerned about another leaderboard as a gaming mechanism, and while it stroked my ego for a while, I’m equalizing the field by giving away what I’ve learned. After having dinner with Shel last night, I realize I need to give and stay humble, and focus on community, so this is the right thing to do.
Update: I’ve just published all that I learned about Twitter on a subsequent post, please read here. I’ve been watching the various twitter ranking, measuring, mashups appear, and most have little utility (other than some of the search tools).

If you remember my pebble theory, you shouldn’t be surprised, I think blogging is moving towards surfing or even boating.
