As the micro-blogging services are getting more popular recently, they become the research focus of the academics and practitioners. This research investigated Plurk users’ behavior from sense-making perspective. Through in-depth interview and content analysis, we found two sets of senses from a holistic view. First, four kinds of sense-making toward Plurk are “Live Journal of My Life,” “Storybook of My Feeling,” “Enquires Desk” and “Expert Zone/Internet Broadcaster.” Second, putting Plurk in a social network perspective, the users make three different senses which are “Inner Circle,” “Cocktail Party” and “Soapbox.”
