I have been increasingly frustrated lately by all the net talk about Twitter being down for the billionth time. Now the blogging world is swimming with little clones trying to take over the massive presence of the oversharing network that people once believed was flawless.
Plurk is one of the favorites to take the place of Twitter. Unfortunately shortly after Leo Laporte started talking about it, it went down. I personally do not understand the need for these services, but they are likely to keep coming. I’m going to have to start drinking again if this is the best news out.
