because the conversations here are easier to follow, I feel like I am actually a participant not a watcher and I like the interface.

and it has cool emoticons!

I agree with kwhobbes. I will stay on Twitter for awhile. You can use hellotxt to send msg to both.

novelty/fun? scroll back here/older pages Twitter same. Twitter more linear ... 'threads' gd, another network whose it 4 ... kids?

look on some of your friends profiles and I think you will see that we're live blogging, sharing resources and discussing in real time.

Plurk conversations

Sorry, but I need both: Twitter for flow of conversation, Plurk for more intimate,focused discussions & the cool emoticons

much more included on Plurk

the conversations just flow so much better here. Not nearly as disjointed as in twitter.

conversations are encouraged here, not "punished" by snarky comments and/or unfollowing.

i agree with dmcordell i have so much knowledge about tools and instructional strategies than i have on twitter. plurk allows you to have

personalized, intimate conversations with other educators about feelings, issues, and even if i have not met someone f2f i feel like i have

made true friendships here. i see the use of twitter more for announcements, quick statements, and notification about live/streaming events
