so i get an invite to orkut.com, and immediately i'm like "yes! another friendster/myspace type service to devote attention to!". but i get all registered, and it seems to kind of suck. both layout and functionality are quite a bit lacking, which surprises me.

the last google product i made a part of my life (gmail) is seriously the most wonderful, intuitive thing i deal with on the web, so i just want to know: am i missing something? is orkut brilliant and i'm just approaching it wrong? i'm curious...

No, you're not missing it. Orkut is basically a big ball of suck. Even if the usability were better (although google just recently took it over and I wouldn't be surprised to see an overhaul), the content is freaking lame. I weep for the Internet.

I think the internet can survive one more shit website.

That's like saying that the Earth will go on when we've polluted and warred ourselves into oblivion. Ok, I'll just weep for myself, then.

Well, it will. It's a big fuck-off ball of iron!
