Orkutting

I never knew there was something called orkut sometime back and one fine day found an invite in my box. Was send by one of one of my friend . I simply ignored first time, but i was people were compellin me to join .The first thing which came up my mind was " What's the big deal about it ? huh " . After that some weeks passed by and when i was bored at office just thought of givin myself a try with this so called "ORKUT". The first impression which orkut gave me was not too pleasing for me(may b coz of their simple interface). But slowly i explored some great communities,digged up some of my old school/office/college friends and i realized it's quite fun and y ppl r crazy abt Orkutting.Looks like Google had taken a pretty good initiative from there end in bringing people closer( thanks to Yahoo for their stiff competetion).Now i make sure that i drop into orkut on a daily basis and see if any new entry found a place in my scrap.Projecting more,i check my orkut first, the moment i land up in office and then go ahead with project work.Anyways google succeeded in takin quite a bit of my time from it's rival product(Y! Messenger) and channalize into their baby, Orkut.Got to see if this is true with anyone else out there ? I am sure to see some raised hands in this vast crowd ...
