Addicted to Orkut....Are you ??

So my BIL introducded me and my wife to this social networking site called Orkut that is currently getting quite popular in India.

Usually I show no interest to such sites, but my wife first started using it. After spending saturday noon on browsing through it, she came to know to about many of her old class mates aka langotia yaars and their current whereabouts....

I was still reluctant to create my profile, but when I gradually came to know that many around me are hooked on to it, this was it. Its not difficult to get a software engineer aroused in his arena. After I logged on, I found many of my close friends active on Orkut with whom I had such great memories. And through their friends network came to know about more people with whom I had lost touch since ages.....

So now I am an active member of this new socio-networking concept.

Does this mean that yahoogroups has lost its charm or has failed to keep up. I don't think so, but may be people wanted another way to interact and keep in touch, something that is simple to use at the same time. Something that has a little more active communication, a different way of talking (known as scraping in Orkut world) and some more pictures than words

Back to my Orkut..........

And if you wanna join, just leave me a comment and I will send you an invite....
