Apparently you have to know another member to join. I just want to see what it's all about. |

I'm on Orkut. You used to just be able to join, but I don't see an option for that anymore. I also don't see how to invite you from within Orkut. However, Orkut is now using Google Accounts for authentication. I think these are basically GMail logins, so I sent you a GMail invite. Hopefully that will get you into Orkut.
Orkut was hot stuff a few years ago, but has been pretty dead lately. (Atleast for English speaking folks. For a while Brazilians made up a major portion of Orkut users, and the langauge issues were becomeing problematic.) Lately MySpace has been the hot social networking site, but I personally hate it. |

I got the invitation, Will. Thanks. Pretty interesting software, but nosey! They ask more questions than I'm comfortable answering for an online service. |

The vast majority of the questions are optional. They probably don't make that too clear. |

Yeah, I understood that. I left almost all of them blank. |
