they help you more and the modifiers allow savings of 1-6 words per plurk. 3rd person saves sentences

maybe because people aren't trying to say much on plurk yet? And the verb is already taken care of for you!

plurk also auto calculates plurk characters formated vs unformated

that it feeels like more than 140 char

it's because the font is so much smaller I think

all depends on the type pf conversation. The threads with the limit on as well change things

michDdot is on to something with the modifiers comment

i have totally noticed that too

i mean that is feels like i am writing a lot more on each plurk v. twitter

agrees with michDdot plus you can make links without having to use Tinyurl or another URL shortener
