Plurk on the desktop: what’s already out there, and what’s next
Posted by: in Social InformantFiled under: Windows, Blogging, Social Software
There are already more desktop apps for Twitter than we could ever possibly cover without losing our minds. But what about that OTHER microblogging service, Plurk? A couple of people have hacked the mobile version into Adobe Air to create two similar apps: PlurkAir and PlurkIt. This is ok for now, but it’s nowhere near the level that Twitter clients have reached.
That’s where Plurker comes in. It’s scheduled to be the first dedicated Windows desktop version of Plurk, and the feature list looks pretty impressive. Sort Plurks using custom searches, set alerts for private Plurks you receive, enjoy autocompleting @message functionality, and way too much more for us to list here. If Plurker is as good as promised, it could give Plurk a massive user boost by taking away one major excuse not to use the service.
