Orkut just added another feature to make it more famous. Now they are allowing you to add friends from your yahoo, hotmail and AOL in the orkut. All you need is to select the email provider, give username password there which you use in it and voila, you can invite / add friends from other service provider also.
So Enjoy for one more reason to be on orkut.
More more step from google to feel more “lucky” while they are using Google Search.
We all know that google is search engine giant and our favourite too. To make people more happy and to please people who use right to left languages, they have just included support in search, all it do is when you type any such language in search box, it will automatically get aligned to “right side” instead of left as usual. Ofcourse you should be searching from supported portal ie. your language’s native portal of google.. eg. google.co.il or google.com.eg etc.

Orkut is just getting better and better, why ? Because they are constantly implementing features what user are suggesting, they are not just coming with a whole lot of features but instead they are coming with features which makes orkut even more more fun.
They just launched new orkut feature by which you can now create custom groups for friends as we do on our mobile phone book :P. So it is even easier to maintain, though groups were their ie. as friend, best friend, acquaintances etc. but they were ready made and you can only use them.
But now as they have made it easier to define own group, rename current group, so it is of real nice use. eg.
If you work in a company and wanted to have list of employees who work with then just create group “company” and add all of them into it and list goes on . So it is cool and easy!
So how to use it ?
For that you have to follow following simple steps:
