I like plurk because it has very cool emoticons compared to twitter...And Plurk has easy access to different things like responde to someones plurk...search plurks...Its like an open conversation and many more

I love plurk but I think when I forgot the scrolling down part I move the timeline. That's irritating.

PLURK is better than twitter, if your purpose for using either of the two is social conversation; but Twitter has a wider audience than PLURK. Twitter is more of a broadcasting medium. Having said that, I'll use Twitter more for business or more serious updates. Still, using PLURK is more fun than Twitter.
