orkut is an addiction. Interest is developed by the people like us. The owner of orkut cheated the code of a company ( I don't remember the name) as I've read an article on the news site on internet. There was a case filed against the owner of orkut but he got out of the trouble as he was growing very much from his site and the case was too late to arrived after the orkut's birth and he already given up his job in that company before this as he cheated the code. And about the rest of the process I even had a glance at the process of earnings he use to earn with orkut. When womeone joins orkut he earns &3 from it, someone scraps 0.5&, adds a friend 1$, testimonials 0.5$ and it goes for a long list of the earning procedure. His case is same similar as the "Bill Gates (Owner of Microsoft)", as he also stole a formula from a company he used to work for. Sorry I missed up the topic. But, all the way peoples are just addicted towards orkut and the owner is all the way in the profits. One the other hand if I talk about MyLot it can't be said as an addict because on this site, you can have many informative posts and knowledges. It's quite nicer then orkut. Orkut was good at a time, but now it's good for nothing as all the communities topics are just for names and nothing to do with that. It's just a friend-circle community which we can also be around here.

It all depends upon your usage of it. You meet your old buddies there, also from communities of interest, we learn something. But leave it with that and do not go deep into it.

the first time i logged on to orkut,i must confess that i was hooked.the thrilling prospect of looking up old long lost school friends was just too overwhelming.i remember a time when i would spend hours on the site looking up old friends,reading their profile,going thru their albums and even reading their scraps to see what have they been up2(i now DO realize that reading others' scraps is TOTALLY corny!!). now the novelty of orkut has worn off and i am glad that i dont spend that much time on the site as i used to do,though i still agree that orkut is INDEED the best site for looking up and keeping in touch with old and new friends and is very user friendly(they even got videos now!!).

Maybe some of us are getting addicted, but i do use it for the simplicity it presents to talk to my friends and to meet new ones ;)
