Words say a lot!

Twitter and Summize now together for eternity, well at least for now. Twitter’s search feature has never been too spiffy. But now, with the addition of what used to be Summize, Twitter has a robust search tool.

For details, see the Twitter blog article Finding A Perfect Match

21CT: Plurknovelas – Fictional digital storytelling with a plurk!twist

Reading/Writing July 4th, 2008

I have kicked off the first “Plurknovela” a collective digital story told by Plurkers around the world. Wanna join in the fun? Join in here: Melissa was much older than her …

Be sure to include the word “Plurknovela” at the start of each new digital story so that we can search on them (inside Plurk) and document them in our wikis, social bookmarks and such. I have created a wiki page to collect and share these Plurknovelas. Please add yours too! Plurknovela Wiki. Diigo and del.icio.us users: be sure to tag your Plurknovelas with “plurknovela” and “eduplurk” in your social bookmarking and other sites (see post comment from Claudia for more details).

Also, check out another Plurk! initiative, the Plurk-Book-Talk series. So with Plurk! you can collaborate on a fictional digital storytelling novela with a Plurknovela or discuss a book with P-B-T.
