Orkut was a wonderful place to hang out and meet old friends, but lately, spamming has been a major irritation for me. With a little help from some third party hack, you can now send the same scrap to all your friends at once. It seems as if this third party hack has found a work around to bypass the captcha and advertise itself.
Scrapbook was one of the best things about Orkut, but nowadays it’s more of an irritation than anything else. The only way to block bulk message from reaching your scrapbook is by removing the person from your friends list.
Orkut Help Center advises you to avoid using scripts, no matter what it claims to do. These scripts have the potential to hijack your Orkut account!
Why can’t Google do something about this? I think there are two ways out of this problem. Google should either stop these scripts from working or introduce a new "Scrap to all" feature. Amit Agarwal has a similar opinion on this topic. What do you say?
