Yeah, I think that people really want the accounts for the social status that comes with them rather than the services themselves. People think that they are special or cool because they have a gmail account. I think that you were special if you were one of the first to get them but now that so many people have them there really isn't very much "special" about them.

Aye mebbeh, but it would still be rude to complain about having one? Everyone that has them seems to just sing there praises. So it cant be that bad.

Google groups is a special kind of forum. It is a web based form to access Usenet. A Usenet forum is also called a newsgroup.

Orkut has a similar capability named Communities.

I still dont really understand why it is such a big deal. Is there anything special about it that everyone wants to join?

Yeah, I agree totally,if it's exclusive membership is cool.And I know cool .It shows that you know 'people'.
Maybe that's just because I have a computeractive subscription too.
However Orkut never got me a gmail account.I wish it could.
