Orkut.com: soon to become richest company in the world
According to recent reports, orkut has claimed a share of profit from various industries and individuals. Sources suggest that, if Orkut(owned by google) was to win this case, overnight it would become the richest company in the world.
(1) A lot of its users have started to a show liking towards tourism. Most of them visit various tourism/vacationing spots to click their snaps and post it online at orkut.com. Various tourism spots which were going out of business are now receiving thousands of orkut members every weekend. Hence orkut claims, the tourism industry should share 0.1% of their profit for every orkut member it receives as a guest.
(2) Every profile photo posted in orkut, acts like an advertisement for the tourism industry in that place, which encourages other members to go visit it. Hence every photo involving a tourism spot in a member’s profile costs $0.01.
(3) Another industry that benefited due to the emergence of orkut is garments and beauty products. Research shows that a lot orkut members purchase dresses /shoes /coolers /beauty products etc… from shops, just to click a snap and post it in orkut.com. Orkut claims a 0.1% profit from such shops for every such purchase by a orkut member.
(4) A lot of orkut members prefer clicking their snaps digitally, which would be easier to load onto the orkut.com website. Also, research shows that orkut members have forced the digital camera industry to higher standards. A digital camera with just good resolution and focus need not sell. Only additional features like brightness adjust etc… would confirm the sale. Hence, every time an orkut member buys a digital camera, the camera company owes 1% of its profit to orkut.com.
(5) Apart from this, each time a person views the profile picture of a user, the user owes orkut.com a $0.0001. There are also a lot of orkut members who take pleasure in visiting other unknown members orkut profile just for fun. A charge of $0.0001 is placed in such account for each visit. However, a 50% discount is available for users who do nothing but sit and browse other profile pictures.
(6) Research also shows that these days a lot of couples meet for the first time through orkut.com. Hence every time a couple gets to know each other in orkut, a price of $0.0001 is charged onto each ones account. The common friend (who unfortunately looses these two into their dream land), will get a small appreciation of $0.00001 onto his account.

Oh dont think I am posting a comment because I want to be free from the above mentioned charges. :P
I like the new template and all and I was surprised to see so many posts. Looks like someone is busy writing away.
Anyways, nice post. Its actually true isnt it? I mean orkut has become an 'IN' thing among all the desis. The whole world seems to be on orkut these days.
@if_tomm_comes: yah its true. Infact i recently heard tat much b4 orkut.com hit us desis, it was so popular in brazil tat some of thm misused it for illegal dealings...so nowadays every undercover cop in brazil uses orkut.com accounts to catch them. So beware:)
Due to the amount of business tat U giv to orkut.com(ppl shuttling b/w Ur blogsite and orkut profile)...guess orkut wont charge u anyways.:)
Oh i guess you did not notice. I have removed the link to my blogsite from my orkut profile. :)
and we have one of my frnds who believes orkut shud give money to the consultants who lose thier job cos they are caught online by thier manager(who is an orkut member). Wud surely make a good addition...eh?
hey were do users pay anything?
There are a number of video channels that offer the viewers high quality music entertainment.
"Crazy Girl" by Eli Young Band is a great tune that is keeping the
group on the right course to success. If you are having a d - J, play at the party,
this usually means you will need a dance floor.
