Review:
Just like Google took over search-engines, GMail is set to take over the mail-services, Orkut, a project by the same company owned by the cute boys of Google, is slowly but surely taking over the social-networking community.
What is so great about Orkut, compared to other social networks (like Friendster etc), is their ensuring that the social-networks remains close knit. Thus, if you're receiving an invitation to join Orkut, then you already have certain freinds you can link up to immediately once you join, and not have to browse through hundreds of personals till you find 'the perfect match'. Thus, more than a dating-service or a place to find new people, Orkut is a social network that aims at reaching out to old friends. Scraps, testimonials, photo-albums, fan-worshipping - many features have thus been added to allow one to stay in touch with old friends, rekindling long forgotten ties.
On the other hand, Orkut also allows one to find 'like-minded' strangers, through many communities on any imaginable topics, which one can join and surly, through the forums, you would find someone who has the same interests as you.
So join in now and grow your social network, Orkut-style :)
