alright. so this is crazy. 2 days now since i've been invited to orkut and i'm still surfing. the remarkable fact abt this friendster-like network is that there are tons of desi-babes-oops-mahilaayen with gorgeous pics. hoho. seems like another virtual-meet-real effort by humanity with good trust levels.

indeed it is fascinating. the virtual social network scene has had me thinking for a while abt its consequences. ppl are quite candid abt themselves. i guess nobody is clear now why he/she has singned up for it. hoho. if i cud, i wud have setup a smart match-maker bot inside n soon shaadi.com etc wud be out of business. hoho.the pure indian population is yet to join in masses as mostly amrikan desis seem to participate. got to see huge fan clubs of some of the bloggers too. in fact, thousands of virtual communities already exist there..like..jagjit singh, rdb, dance, bollywood, arr. u name it there's a community...even a hindi-speaking-videshi ppl community. i fear a lot of them mite back out once they perceive it as some kind of invasion of privacy. a lot of them mite not even join for the same reason. and there r plenty of long lost fellows too. communities of hi-schools n all. harping on an optimistic note: i guess we're moving towards a society with more candid ppl and greater acceptance levels. maybe virtual lives have some point to prove b4 the real ones.

and finally google IPO'ed today. guess they'll speculate more abt the imminent doomsday. fascinating user feedback on slashdot.
