Throwback Thursday: What Karma Songs?

We found several stacks of CDs while sorting the stuff from my childhood home. The CDs were a mix of data (like my thesis), photos, videos and music. Sweetie has been checking the contents of everything we come across (CDs/floppy disks/diskettes) to make sure we can back up retrievable data and not accidentally throw out stuff with PII. 




One of the CDs was marked "Karma Songs". Obviously mine because I wrote the title. I couldn't remember what kind of songs I burned on the CD. I suspect it's from a folder from my iPod which I backed up from my PC. 

Sweetie tried to retrieve the contents of the CD. Unfortunately, it's dead and now I have no way to find out what are "Karma Songs". Knowing me it's probably a series of angry at the ex songs, hahaha. I barely remember stuff from that period, so this shall remain a mystery for now. 

What kind of songs did you use to burn on CDs? Or if you are a GenXer, what kind of songs did you put on a mix tape?

P.S. It just occurred to me, maybe it's songs previously discussed on Plurk? If you're a Plurker, you'd know.

Plurk, Plurk-Plurkan Na!

I received an invitation to join the newest craze in the blogosphere - Plurk.com - through a Twitter message (thanks Rom!). I tried signing up immediately but for some strange reason it wouldn't accept my registration, so I let it stew for awhile until I got an email invitation from AJ.

I'm now "plurking"!


So does this mean I'm going to abandon Twitter? Hmmm, I'm not really sure yet though a lot of my friends from Twitter have signed up on Plurk as well.


I've just been using Plurk for a couple of hours but it's been fun so far and here are the things I like about it:

1. It's easy to catch up if you went offline for a couple of hours.
2. You can just scroll through the plurks and you see it on a timeline.
3. Like Gmail, plurk-back (or answer backs) are threaded together.
4. I like the interface, it's not boring.
5. It's easier to add/remove friends.

So what do you think of Plurk? And what do you call people who Plurk? Plurkers? Plurkaholics? Plurkanoids? Plurkees?

Maybe if I get a new set of hamsters I'm going to name them "Twitty" "Plurkee" and "Jaikee". Heh.
