While I’m a pretty big fan of Google based technologies, the social site Orkut just never seemed to get off the ground from my perspective.
It felt klutzy, but more importantly it too easily seemed to allow strangers to spam you. And, frankly, I got tired of getting emails telling me that someone was commenting on my message board only to discover it was someone dumping links in Spanish.
So, Google, while I still love you, I’ve deleted my Orkut account.
Facebook, on the other hand, seems to be the place everyone who’s anyone is heading toward. So, that’s where you can find me doing the social networking thing.
I’d be there a whole lot more, except that the PackRat developers destroyed everything that was fun about the game in the latest update and added insult to injury when they added pay-to-play.
