I'd say it's like playing pin the tail on the donkey vs playing dodgeball.
Hey guys, wow, now I'm sorry I made the statement and went to bed - great discussion. Glad it resonates

I always thought of Twitter like a big room filled with people, with knots of conversation here & there

I still haven't figured out how Plurk feels yet--I still feel like I'm on a merry-go-round with people having fun all around
