Review Orkut, Get a Free Gmail Invite

I'm sure all of you have used orkut now. If not, PM me and I'll invite you.

Here's what I'm proposing. I'm looking for a nice review of orkut to introduce people to the service. You should cover orkut's features and uses, as well as how it compares with other services like Friendster etc.

Whoever writes a good one will get an invitation to create a Gmail account for themselves. I'm looking for something at least 100 words in length - that's only about three paragraphs.

Post it in the orkut forum here at GoogleCommunity.com .

So what are you waiting for? Get writing.

I'll take you up on the free invite, but I already have gmail invites out the wazoo. Okay, I think I'm down to just two now, but anyway. I'd love to compare orkut to friendster.

orkut invite

Not sure I can write a good comparison between Orkut and Friendster, or any other socialnet gathering hole since I haven't tried any of them, but now's as good a time as any, right?

If invited to Orkut, I'll spend a bit of time there, and then report back here in hopes of winning your gmail invite. Just let me know...

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 :)

HAHAHAHAHA... Lets slope together a "review" to get a free email account... bharti... maybe if you had more then one post someone might consider giving you a gmail account. That should go towards everyone else too. You all just joined this site for Gmail and Orkut, and a majority of you intend not to stay. So maybe you should earn the account by posting, oh lets say 10 posts that are useful. That would be the only worthy way to show you might stay at this great community. I mean most of you are on orkut, but only 5 people actually belong to the Google Community Community at Orkut... hmmm kinda strange... show your support if you want gmail accounts, not sloppy reviews that make really no sense at all.

That's all I have to say about you greedy people out there!
