I have found something I like even better than Twitter. Like Twitter you can only post 140 characters at a time, but the layout is much more fun. There's also a points system that makes you want to play with it more and be more sociable.
Twitter has been my friend for awhile now, but keeping up with friends has been difficult and time consuming. Click, scroll, go to the next page. Now on the scene is something easier, it's called Plurk and it's so much easier to keep up with.
The layout is on a timeline so all you have to do it click on the timeline to read the posts. Comments can be left for each individual post, and you can read them by clicking on the post and reading from the drop down box. It tells you what you've missed so you can make sure not to miss anything.
For everything you do on Plurk you earn point. Point give you special priveleges. Your first goal will be 20 point and then 50. Earn some cool new smileys to add to your posts at these levels. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Emote is a concept of sharing emotions, built over microblogging with full functionality of a social-networking site and a beautiful scrolling TIMELINE (www.emote.in/misc/images/timeline.JPG)
emote is a microblogging service; which is a platform to -
1. broadcast and share your emotions with your family, friends and with the entire world.
2. Make yourself heard, comment on news, stories and current affair.
3. Share your experiences, memories and events with your friends and family.
4. Connect with different people with similar emotional attributes as yours.
(ex: if atrocities on animals make you sad, connect with others who share the same feeling)
5. Jot-down your experiences. You usually have so many things to say - a constant stream of thoughts, comments and observations running through your head continuously.
6. A wonderful TIMELINE that arranges your messages in a chronological order date by date.
(A prominent micro-blog reviewer thinks so!)

Sometimes, the important connections we make are the ones we make with ourselves.
