How? I answered for the question you have asked.
No you didn't, you copied and pasted a weblink, fairly lazy way to answer a question and tinged with a little bit of dis-respect.

I didn't relise we where drawing dividing lines between Orkut and Non-Orkut CP members. The expression you where looking for was to "keep mum", perhaps you ought to re-consider your attitude, and tell Colin why you value Orkut, after all CP is about information exchange.

EXACTLY!! I think Sarath is being a bit complete idiot snob about this--an attitude that is anathema to the concept of CP and the Lounge. Imo, someone wants to be an elitist here they will quickly find themselves a target of disrespect and much dung flinging. Being one toward Colin in particular already reveals how handicapped they are with their empty marble bag...

I don't want to copy paste the same words found in the link. It's hard to take the words as it is sometimes especially we are sharing something and classify something as marketing spiel. You know how the discussions are happening here and what are the things we are used to exchange here.

And I can't believe I'm replying to you with a "me too" post. Somebody help us all. Before it's too late.

No... Why would I want to use Orkut? -- modified at 10:16 Friday 20th October, 2006 It is just a simple question - Why vote it down?

Let me try. Orkut is hugely popular in India and I think Brazil. I want to emphasize *hugely popular*. I guess Sarath just assumed it was popular all over the world, especially in the USA. I bet he found out that Orkut is not a worldwide phenomenon. It is kind of neat once you get a critical mass going. You can sign up, locate your friends, people with common interests, join groups, etc. Anyone can leave you so-called scraps (messages), and you can reply back. Many college / high school / youth use it as a major means of communication in India. Perhaps in the USA it is not popular because of the lack of a critical mass of users.

"Scraps"? Poor name - I'd give scraps to a dog, not a person (unless I didn't like them).

I guess I'm not in that demographic.

Dunno... I'm not in the USA.

It is entirely possible that his lack of command for the English language causes him to post the about link so that he wouldn't mangle the explanation of what the site offered. Dunno... tough crowd. Or he could be snobbish. I just didn't read that into it.
This statement is false.

Ok, go to the soapbox and soak. Your miseries will compound to the point where you won't be able to recognize any semblance of your former self and can start anew.
