Updates from Friends:Know what your friends are doing:New Orkut Feature

Orkut recently introduced yet another new feature, by this feature you will have a list on your ORKUT PROFILE HOMEPAGE showing who has done changes in their profile. It may include notifications of modification in their profile description, adding new photos to their profile, receiving new testimonial or uploading new youtube videos. So you will have list of recent changes done by your friend in front of you.

You may have seen many people announcing in their name area that new photo uploaded etc, I think this the reason for Google / Orkut guys to roll out this feature and is the source for inspiration for them.

But this can be dangerous where you want to hide your updates from few people. So Orkut has also introduced option to disable your updates to your friends.

You need to goto :
Settings > Privacy > HomePage Notification

Select: Hide updates

Done.

I appreciate this feature , yet another reason for addition to orkut.
