I have a gmail account and it creates a orkut profile for me automatically!!!! I realized it when a mail on my gamil account that I have a message on orkut from the hinderlands of Maharashtra from a lady saying she was inspired by an article I wrote. (I am a journalist). I had never logged into orkut before that. Could it be a fair amount of their bloated figure is people like me? I would take the orkut figure with a large pinch of salt.
