Orkut

Friendster, Tribe, LinkedIn, Orkut... Does it never stop?

Orkut seems to be the latest rage. Robert added me to his Orkut list earlier today; less than 15 minutes after signing up about a dozen perl'ish people had added me. Busy busy! It looks moderately neat, although LinkedIn is the most fun to browse for me, maybe because the social-social type networking site seems rather pointless. But for that sort of site, Orkut looks like it will work a lot better than friendster. I don't invite people not already signed up (because surely everyone is already sick of it :-) ), but feel free to add me, dear reader, after you sign up if you think it's moderately appropriate.

update ~8 hours later: closer to three dozen now; wow -- now if I only knew how that could ever be useful :-)

update ~24 hours later: just realized that it's "invitation only". So if you are on my link list or we regularly exchange emails, feel free to send a mail and I'll invite you. :-)

update: please, no more comments about you wanting to join orkut. I'm not using it.

Hi Bjørn- I'm very interested in having software that will let me see who the friends of my friends are and to take advantage of the network I already have. So I'm fascinated by this new Orkut from Orkut at Google. I've been a geek for 23 years and unfortunately, my friends aren't real hip to online networking and such. I've finally got one of them to blog. Right now blogging is my favorite form of social networking. To the question, will it never stop? My answer is - I sure hope not because there's lot of room for improvement.

I'm excited to see this new development of Atom which seems to be a new blogging and RSS standard that could allow for some cool new desktop apps. Have you gotten into that yet?

Hi Bjørn!

Sorry to bother you about that, but I'm very curious about Orkut and since is by invitation only I was not able to join it yet... I'm from Brazil, and I think it will take a very long time to someone I know invite me... If it's not asking too much, please invite me! I promise to invite lot's of brazilian hot chicks for it!

Thanks a lot!!!
