Though I got the Orkut invitation from a US friend when it was in testing mode, I did not use it. Now, it seems that Indian users are increasing on Orkut and the word 'scrap' is heard everywhere. 'Scrapping' is becoming more popular than chatting. I think Google Talk is also gaining some popularity because of Orkut.
I also started orkuting and adding friends. I also found the community of my previous organization.
I saw some special scraps in different colors, fonts, and languages and searched to know how to do that. Being a Firefox-fan, searched on Mozilla Add-ons and found this toolbar. I think it is also helpful for other orkuters. To install this, you need Firefox browser.
Orkut Scrapper:
By installing it, you will be able to:
- Bold, italicize, and underline the words
- Change the font color, font type, and text size
- Can type in English and convert it into 10 Indian languages viz. Telugu, Hindi, Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Tamil, Gujarati.
- Inset link, images, emoticons, and sigs.
- Rainbow colorize the words
(click the images for bigger and clear images)
And also, it will add scrapbook, album, send a message, and send teaser links to all the people in My Friends' list. You will also see a drop-down menu on menu bar with direct links to lot of options in Orkut.
