Default orkut.co.in Google Introduces Indian Edition of Orkut with Themes






Some updates for Orkut - the most popular social networking site in India.

Sasidhar informs that Google has officially launched the Indian edition of Orkut while Thilak discovers themes inside his Orkut account. You may not see them as Orkut themes are not enabled for everyone yet.
The orkut.com site now redirects you to orkut.co.in if you visit this website from India. Orkut.in however remains a parked domain serving AdSense ads.

I dont really care, since I dont use orkut anymore. My account is still there, but since it was full of spam, and mass scrapping, I just abandoned it at that.

Which setting to disallow mass scrap ?

I see allow scrap from friends only, already set that - by that most spam will be avoided, thats good.

Wow .. orkut just went to intolerably pathetic from tolerably pathetic .
