Default New features for orkut scrapbook.


orkut has silently added a few nifty features to the scrapbook.

Quote:
Now, you can paste in photos, videos, audio and flash widgets in scraps to your friends. Here's how:
  • Add images
    Copy and paste URLs ending in .jpg, .gif, .png or .bmp and the image will appear in the scrap.
    for example, http://example.com/example.jpg
  • Add videos from YouTube and Google Video
    Copy and paste the URL and the video will appear in the scrap.
    for example, http://youtube.com/watch?v=videoid
  • Add podcast/audio
    Copy and paste the URL of an audio file and an audio player will appear in the scrap.
    for example, http://example.com/example.mp3
  • Add html-embeddable objects
    Create or upload your content at sites such as photobucket.com, imageshack.com, rockyou.com or slide.com. Copy and paste the html embed code to share it with your friends.
Enjoy!

That, I guess, is a problem that Opera will have to fix, not Google.

That's a relief. It wasn't there when I posted this thread but it has been added now. Thanks for pointing it out!

I now wish they wouldn't require you to enclose smiley codes in straight brackets and allow full BB codes in the scrapbook. An updated list of smilies would be quite welcome too.

Orkut just revamped itself .. anew and soothing cooler look ... pretty much like the 1 phpbb3 has ... rounded corners smaller fonts and i think they have also implemented some web 2.0 features in the profile page

Refreshing the page normally fixes the issue though.
