Orkut!!

Had written these lines 4 years back, the time when Orkut was at its peak. Seeing everyone hooked and addicted to social networking sites nowadays made me pull out these lines from my old diary.

Orkut, a place you want to be.

I would say.......

Newer trust this place because you will find,

words not faces,

profiles not races,

& photos with no traces.

have more than 500 friends?

u just managed to be in Orkut hall of fame.

it hardly matters if you don't know most of them,

because here we all are just the same.

testimonials are the demand of time,

its just the volumes of praises compressed in just few lines,

its nothing but a mutual deal,

the more you get the better you feel.

you will find communities of just about everything,

where you can see irrelevant post, just about anything.

to own a few of them will boost your image,

don't worry we all follow the same linage.

Getting friend requests that seems, all the time anonymous,

stupidity that's the word which seems so synonymous.

tried avoiding a few,

but there are plenty in the crew.

some say its a time waste,

some say it all depends on your own taste,

many say this place is out of socks,

but most like me say Orkut still rocks.
