'Orkut' _sounds_ so dirty that I think if I was a user I wouldn't dare admit it to anyone. But luckily it's just the 6 million (the population of Finland) of us who think that way. :P
I'm down with this but the only reason why I'm using Facebook is because my friends are. Hey, you gotta follow the crowd, ya know? I tried starting the crowd once with GTalk, not so much of a success since people still continued using MSN. :(
@Vacantsy I would rather use orkut/gtalk but all my friends are split across MSN/Facebook. I don't really want to use either of them though but what choice do you have really. You can't make your friends switch.
This actually looks decent, I might join it. But probably won't as all of my friends use Facebook shit. I hate Facebook. No one even goes on AIM anymore, because of it. The only reason I even joined AIM was because none of my friends used Windows Live Messenger. Wait.... I'm starting to see a pattern.
Facebook is becoming crap with lot of junk applications. Lets hope Orkut will improve any social media experience. But they need to do a lot of marketing
can't seriously expect everyone to migrate across from facebook. best thing they could do is design a new fb aggregator that allows more customisation, using fb data.
With Facebook becoming crappier with each passing day, Orkut could be a refreshing change. Yes, it's like Facebook, but once a standard has been set, you'd be a moron to think you can change it so quickly.
Give them time, and I think Orkut could make a huge comeback.
Looks like it's better designed then facebook, but facebook wins hands with the better user base and applications. The groups and pages are also very useful!
Hello? Would I want to have two social websites that do the same? No. Would I want to move to the website where there are no friends? No. Would I want to move all of my pictures, etc? No...
@tkosullivan I just did. Most of what you put up on the screen, I disreguard because I need to talk with people who have quite a bit more understanding about Technology and this world, than what you want to deal with at the moment. And your attitude, comments, and behaviour prove and show it to the world. Helping me to prove that most accounts on this site are garbage, and most people who would not care if they have them removed, saving valued space on this server.
If you want to fix the earth for your human race, get off youtube, stay away from your computer take the next plane to Hati and have fun, I wish you luck.
Well yeah, I know I can do that. But I don't want to since it'll be tied to my main google account. And I assume I won't be able to change my age back when I turn 18 in a couple of months.
I personally think it's a big improvement, but why not make the new design consistent throughout Orkut? I want to move to Orktu because Facebook is getting too cluttered an annoying, so if the new design were consistent and you could build in a sync with facebook messages etc then I would never go back to FB. BuddyPress has a FB sync, so why not Orkut?
NETWORK MONOPOLY: Its new kind of monopoly. Its not legally protected monopolies but everybody use them because they dont need them another. Like google. Everbody searches everything from google. OR like FACEBOOK. Nobody need to use another friend networking website because it has everything need. So the facebook can decide what ever it wants like the monopolies.
" kut " is a pretty dirty word in Dutch. It means vagina but than the dirty form. coincidentally flickr in Dutch spelled " Flikker " is a dirty word for homosexual.
This is no joke!! On a translation site if you don't believe me!! oh flikker means 2 things by the way. It can also mean like flickering of light or something.
Well I am on the internet. And the internet has no borders! If Sony made a product that was called: OkFuck I bet you they would be forced by the Americans to change the name. So don't be ignorant!
To be honest, when Google comes out with something, it usually destroys the other similar products in the industry. Give them some time, and this "Orkut" WILL overtake Facebook and Myspace. Just wait, Google is too good.
the "most important part" is that your other friends actually use it, and since everyone uses facebook instead, i have no reason to switch to orkut. sorry, google.
I don't know how Google will convince people to move over to Orkut when they spent hundreds of hours bringing their Facebook profile to what it is now. Going to Orkut means starting all over again and who knows how long it will take to get a considerable amount of people to join Orkut to make it worth it.
@arzo2000 I dont know why many have a hard time making a distinction between, youtube, facebook, myspace, orkut, or any of the social sites on the net.
