Orkut introduces new privacy features!

hiii Friends
Hopes that by this time most of you around here must be the member of
ORKUT social networking site..here most annoying thing everyone must have noticed is that earlier they did not provide privacy to your scrapbook,albums,videos etc..

Finally orkut has introduced a new set of privacy features that were much needed by the community especially in the wake of the latest crimes that we hear coming out of orkut! So, finally orkut has taken the initiative and has introduced privacy for scrapbook access, album(i.e Images) access as well as Video access. You can do this by going to the settings link in the left corner of your screen and then going to the “Privacy Tab”.

Another good thing that orkut has introduced is the Ask questions feature where in your friends can answer to questions that you have asked. Another thing that is noteworthy is the updates feature, where in you know the latest updates about your friends! This is very effective especially when your friends list goes into hundreds;)

I personally feel that orkut is standing up to the stiff competition from MySpace and Facebook as well as linkedIn when it comes to professional networking and the only thing that orkut should actively work upon is the OpenSocial API which is still in Beta and takes limited developers. I hope they open it for public as soon as possible.
