Orkut: Crazy or Addictive

Kicking off the outdoors popular social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace, orkut has achieved its crown among the Indians. At least in our city, New Delhi. Orkut has become a huge crazy place for the youth to spend their time chatting, sharing their pictures, videos and teasing and competing each other with lots of cool applications which has been introduced by the Orkut Team few months ago. A two to three hours of experience feels like a few minutes lap. No don't blame the Orkut it's the craze.

I have a guy in my friendlist. He don't like to study(school), or endulge in other activities. He just sits on his computer playing with the differenty features on the Orkut. He gotta so familiar and handy with them that he can do a wonderful profile work with text. His this talent is limited to Orkut only. Now is this the Orkut's so called craze or his laziness? No going to extent more about him after all we are talking about Orkut.

So what's that which attracts us towards the Orkut? Is it its population? being easy accessible to its users or just its a social networking site. I don't have answers for the first two but I'm sure that the third one isn't true. We have other social networking sites like Facebook, Myspace etc but they aren't popular as the Orkut. And there are others too which decalared them totaly Indian social networks. But the Orkut like fever isn't on any other.

More population equals to more mess, issues and problems. With recent cases of kidnapping in which the victim got familiar to the culprits through Orkut and some other same kind of cases sometimes the portal attracts some dark eyes.

It's usual to know about cases of fake profiles and spamming. It doesn't harms the Orkut craze at a big but hurts the vistims emotionally and may be financially too.

Apart from the dark holes we have lots of advantages. Freeky people from different area are coming together forming their unique groups in their respective interests such as forming a music band, a bikers club. Even couples are getting engadged through the Orkut. We have users from minor ages to 90+ years old. The all youth is Online OnOrkut.
