I have only been on Orkut for less than two days and I am already addicted. It is fun to build up a network and surf the people. The novelty is certainly a factor, I imagine things will slow down once I stop adding people that I know, but I am still enjoying it. I understand that the concept of a social networking site is nothing new, but this is the first time I have cared to join one. I think that this is because the site is invitation only. It is hard* to get in. So it has value, the other sites did not.
Orkut is very slow.
If I know you and you want me to invite you to Orkut, add a comment.
[Update 5 June] Orkut have made some infrastructure changes overnight and now it is fast

Orkut is often slow, and the lack of a keyless sign-on option is really starting to bug me.
If it’s asp.net, they could just allow passports, surely?
use Firefox. It Remembers.
Orkut is veryyyy slow. Wonder when it adopts google’s tech of distributed computing and abandons windoze.
Orkut runs off asp, and asp can not handle 1000+ users.
Actually orkut runs off ASP.NET, a different technology. It can handle a whole lot more than 1000 users, the limit is the server capacity and bandwidth.
Micorosoft.com runs on ASP.NET and it is one of the top 5 websites in the world (by traffic).
Could you please invite me?
