google is great.. it is much accurate than any other search engines.. and about the Gphone I think I already heard of it.. I just can't remember though..

In the past years, my toolbar is Yahoo.. but since 2007, i am already using google toolbar and it's search engines..

for the google OS I just hope it won't cost a lot.. since MS and MAC are both expensive.. If that will happen, I think i will stick to linux..

Google already has an OS called gOS, a folk of ubuntu linux

Yes, i think orkut is really copying facebook but its also adding some new features with face book dont have and also its more user friendly than facebbok,
i think orkut kept facebook as ideal and kept on improving self and making itself good.
thank you very much

Orkut may be more user-friendlt than facebook, but it has very little of the privacy of Facebook. Yeah I know you may be surprised to read this. Facebook tracks your every move and reveals it to everyone in your friends list. While orkut doesn't do this, it does something worse...it reveals your profile to anyone who visits it. Facebook allows strangers to only see the photo, name and gives the option to add them as your friend, but orkut displays your profile!

There is an option in the profile settings of orkut to change the display to strangers, but still, a whole lot of info is revealed. Worse still, Orkut reveals who has visited your profile recently. So a fraudster can easily get all the info he needs from one orkut profile than by visiting many facebook profiles!

so in my opinion, no matter who copies whom, it's best that we stick to facebook!

I have been using both Facebook and Orkut for the past 4 years.. For me Orkut is far better than facebook. Orkut is simple to use, easy to view all the required data at once.On the other hand, facebbok is still complicated to me. Still confused a lot . Orkut may not be having that security advantages of FB. But, for those who want very tight security, it is better to keep off from social networking sites.!! Why do you post such 'sensitive' data in such sites?? Orkut have some sort of security features, which are enough for ordinary users. FB should have been much more simpler for having more new users..-reply by Philips
