Plurk

In this video, I demonstrate Plurk. Plurk is a site which is mostly like Twitter but employs a much different view of status updates. These updates appear in a horizontal river interface which I have never seen before. Plurk does have an IM/Jabber bot, mobile support, and a nifty Karma system. This Karma system rewards you for using the website and also inviting your friends to join. Plurk is no Twitter killer in its current state, but I've come to be fond of the tool and I hope you give it a try. Please use this link (http://plurk.com/redeemByURL?from_uid=8636&check=726756715&s=1) if you wish to join (Disclaimer: It will probably increase my karma if you do :))

Enjoy!
