Make scrapping faster with more fun:Orkut Toolbar

Info Type:: Tips
Application / Software : Orkut & Firefox

This post is specifically for

users. I love it and can’t really surf without it.

Orkut Toolbar

It is nice small add-on for firefox which can really make you special among your Orkut friends. It has really nice features. As a regular orkut user, you might feel need of one or more feature in orkut for which you really feel charm fading. Well, I too…
One was : To get an option to use signature with every post.
Second one: Visual options to format posts ie. making text look colorful and interesting.

So this is a nice toolbar with really good things.

You can
1. Change colors on single click for text,
2. You can insert smiley even faster (useful for those who are very used Yahoo emoticons).
3. Formatting text.
4. Insterting Hyperlink made so easy even for non-learner . Just provide address and anchor text and you use it.
5. Managing your Orkut specific bookmarks at one place.
6. A nice and very interesting feature was to create text from smilies automatically. I loved it.

Basically, you can still do all above but with Orkut Toolbars, it really gets fun.

Installing easy as clicking link below :
Orkut Toolbar for firefox

The downside

1. It includes signature in almost all text generated by this .
2. The option to include image / flash in posts really sucks. They will actually take you to a url which automatically copy your selected on that site. I first thought goole somehow allowed posting images on blog but that was really bad move.

So enjoy !!
Overall I liked it.
