Every aspect of social life and society has negative shades. Orkut is no exception. The purpose of orkut seems good but the intentions of some people using the service is bad. Even though I don't use orkut, I have dozens of friends who claim that they have met very old friends through orkut and are thus die hard fans . On the contrary, I believe it is killing the "real" social life of people who can actually meet in person, but prefer to meet in the virtual society!!! The thought of banning orkut is foolish.The people who have concerns may contact google and have the objectionable content removed.
