I’ve been tempted by, and have succumbed to, Orkut. The Google-affiliated site seems to be combining elements of Friendster’s unassuming stance with the somewhat risqué elements of Nerve Personals. I’m not sure what I think about that, especially since Orkut seems to be promoting business contacting; but I’m interested enough to see how this works out, so I’ve joined.
I’m happy to invite people, too; in fact, am actively seeking volunteers. I don’t like disclosing people’s e-mail addresses unless they’re specifically okay with it, so if you’re reading it and would like to participate, leave a comment and I’ll ping you through Orkut! One big happy Internet.
Oh, and if you’re already part of it, let me know also. I’d like to find more people.
Yeah, what the hell. Count me in.
I’ll try the Orkut.
ping me please! david is already on — a googlefriend hooked him up, but didn’t want to set me up with an account since googlefriend also tipped me off to write about it, and didn’t want to be easily traceable if googlepr got miffed.
Now I’m all curious. Hey, fix me up.
thanks for the ping
The ping didn’t come through, I don’t think.
Tony-
I’ve resent. Perhaps Yahoo is junking it automatically?
I read it at Jill’s and I am curious…
Nothing for me. Try again, and I’ll check my bulk folder BEFORE deleting it.
I’d like to give it a try.
I would love to check it out…
Camilla- sure, uh, maybe. Who are you?
