And speaking of Indians hooked to orkut, I believe Orkut was the first social networking site we got to explore .. when orkut was getting popular in India by arnd 2002 , Myspace was already the leader with maximum ppl in US loggd in.. We were never totally into the concept of 'peeking' into others profile to see what they are upto and the youngsters(inc me :)) picked it up very fast..

I'm a big fan - your cartoons make me 'feel' and think! For many in India, Orkut and Facebook are really the only imprints tons of folk have on the web - hence addictive. Orkut is huge in India, and recently, there's been a shift to Facebook. I find there's simply lots more to do at Facebook and hence my comment. Thanks for dropping by Hugh.
