What is the weight of Orkut? An established two year old craze for social interaction? Or more than that? Ashima, one of my friends has been particularly vocal about its utter uselessness and irrelevance to any kind of 'constructiveness' as such. She even nicknamed it 'Morkut' in her initial stage of handshake with the 'friendly neighborhood', Orkut and preferred age-old emails to this socializing option. I used to think the same but now I think otherwise. It was due to Orkut that I got to reconnect with her as well as a host of my other school friends...
I cannot be more thankful to this otherwise non productive site for helping me get together my adolescent days, golden school memories and my oh! so special friends. And my once-upon-a-time anti-Orkut friend really loves it too.
Today, the once-in-a-month adda sessions that we are blessed with when we hit one of those reasonably priced family restaurants in Park Street (so that we can rattle on incessantly without attracting too much of attention from other customers as it mostly remains empty), the sharing of highs and lows and most importantly, the boon to laugh together, are very special to me.
Thanks Orkut! Today Ashima and I and a whole lot of initial Orkut haters share an invisible bond with you.
