Could there be something better than Twitter?

So with all the buzz about Twitter and all the million blog posts done about this new Social Networking site, lo and behold another similar site pops up and is the talk of the web. So what is this new social site well it is Plurk.com and it is causing a storm. Some people have been calling it Twitter on meth, but you be the judge. Is Plurk just a Twitter Clone?
Social Media Mom, Kristen Munson talks about how she was , “At first I was a bit overwhelmed and did not see the attraction.” If you would like to see what others are saying about Plurk then check out all the recent posts at Sphinn.com and watch this video below from YouTube.com explaining what exactly Plurk is and how to use it:
Now that I am using Plurk I have found things that I really like and hate when comparing it to Twitter. First of all I really like the timeline concept that Plurk uses and I love the more visual effect it gives. I also like that you can divide friends into cliques. Some things I don’t like is that there is not a easy mobile updater like Twitter has although I have heard they are working on making the mobile “SMS” option easy and accessible.
So I will let you all decide what you think. For me I use it and like it for the most part. You can start following me at http://www.plurk.com/user/yourseomentor!

Thank you so much for the mention. I too and fascinated with Plurk almost to an addictive state. The timelines and individual threads are added bonuses to the fabulous emoticons and cliques that one can have. I am totally hooked.
