Its Orkut’s third birthday and to celebrate this occasion, Google has rolled out a new feature, Orkut on SMS - which lets you send scrap and receive scrap notification using mobile phone. With this new feature, Orkut plans to invade your offline social life. It doesn’t really matter if you’re in a bus, office, school or college; Orkut fits smoothly into your pocket.
As of now, they’ve rolled out Orkut SMS only for Brazilian users who use Claro Mobile Service. In the near future they’ll expand it to other provider and countries around the globe. You’ll notice a message while you sign into your account when this feature becomes available to you.
They have also added some hidden Easter Eggs here and there for the adventurous to find. Drop a comment, if you find one. Happy Orkuting!
