Facebook, Myspace, and Plurk

Posted by on Oct 21, 2008 in Blogging | 6 comments

So lately I’ve noticed a lot of activity in Facebook. I’m not entirely sure if it’s because I’ve been using it more lately, ever since I got my iPod touch, but there’s definitely been more activity. Namely, people I haven’t heard from in ages have been using facebook and found me. Is there a sudden surge in advertising for it? Has anyone noticed? I have to admit that I haven’t noticed anything going on but I can say I’m definitely using it more and more since I got my iPod touch. The facebook app really rocks!

Then there’s Myspace. I was talking to jules the other day and she still uses Myspace mainly because of the music. Does that mean if facebook were to put some effort into getting better support for artists and bands, they’ll surpass Myspace? Who knows.

Jules also asked me about plurk. Do I have it? Yeah, I do. You can find my plurk timeline here. I can’t remember the last time I actually used it either. I still think that twitter trumps all of those programs like Pownce and Plurk. I do agree with jules when she said that twitter is still lacking and it needs more. Perhaps they could get some of the features that Pownce has. But txt updates via phone are still it’s power I think. If you feel like following me on twitter, you can find me here.

What do you use? Twitter, pownce, facebook, myspace, etc?

Thanks for rating this! Now tell the world how you feel via Twitter.
(Nah, it\'s cool; just take me back.)

    I have Twitter, Pownce, Facebook and Myspace, but the only thing I ever use is Myspace – and even that is rare. I can’t remember the last time I logged into any of the others. I can’t stand Facebook because of all the “plant a seed in my garden” and all of those other apps that mean nothing to me, yet I get a thousand requests a week. Blah. I get an email at least every day telling me that someone new is “following me” on twitter, but I don’t know why. I haven’t written anything in a year.

    I find the time line on Twitter hard to follow. If you don't stay on it constantly, it's very hard to catch up. I personally prefer Plurk because of that very reason.
