Can Orkut get funnier?

Orkut LogoOrkut is the social networking website run by Google. It has been around for quiet a while and is giving some tough competition for myspace and facebook. Orkut can be used with your Google account or any other email ID. Important features of Orkut include sending scraps, messages, testimonials and albums.

Recently Orkut went under a complete change. The old simple look was gone and the new look was brought into it. Many many new features were added into it, especially applications and stuff like that.

Well the funny part about Orkut is that it is just evolving into the next facebook. Look at the similarities, applications are a common thing to both and some of the applications are same but with different names. Well Wall in facebook was like a modification of Scrapbook on Orkut. Who in the world had the idea of telling “Bad, bad server. No donut for you”? (This may result in my website being banned from Google, pray that they take it with a sense of humor). Its Google we are talking about, the egg heads (smart fellows) there should be quick in fixing stuff like this.

“Can Orkut get funnier?” was a cliche, I do a lot of working around on Orkut, social networking and stuff, but I expect a lot more from guys at Google. Some people do say that Orkut is just Google’s way of tracking its users (well it can be true!). I work a lot on Orkut (now I have stopped) and will be a private eye to spot errors on it and report it (here and to guys at Google). You do that too.

  2. Cookie Stealing Script
  3. Facebook does have some errors
