Orkut Adds New Feature To Automatically Find & Add Your Gmail Contacts

Orkut Login Find Friends

Orkut the myspace of south-asia and Brazil introduced a new feature allowing users to find and add their Gmail contacts already on Orkut with a single click, in the official blog post on Orkut blog software engineer Jude Britto writes:


Orkut Invite Friends

One of the nice things about Gmail is that it adds the names of the people you have been in touch with over the years as contacts in your address book. Wouldn't it be nice if you could automatically find those contacts on orkut? We've started rolling out a new feature to do just that. If you use a gmail address to log into orkut, finding your friends is now just a click away. The find friends button on the homepage, friends page or friends list page gets you started on importing contacts. Your gmail address is already filled in, and since you've already logged into orkut, we don't have to ask for your Gmail password once again. We'll show you the contacts who are already on orkut, and let you choose which ones to add as friends. For contacts who aren't on orkut yet, we make it easy to choose the ones you want to invite to orkut. You can even add a personal message to send with the invite. Soon, we'll be adding support to import your contacts from other email accounts.

Google Knol - In Competetion To Wikipedia

Knol is the latest offering from world's leading search engine Google, believed to be a direct competition to Wikipedia.Org, The term Knol meaning "unit of knowledge" refers to both the project and an article in the project.


Google Knol

Unlike Wikipedia, Knol will have registered posters and no anonymous posting is allowed, the website is available to only invited beta users and no URL has been provided for the service yet to general public.

Only a single screenshot of the service was released on Google's blog here.

According to Google:

A knol on a particular topic is meant to be the first thing someone who searches for this topic for the first time will want to read. The goal is for knols to cover all topics, from scientific concepts, to medical information, from geographical and historical, to entertainment, from product information, to how-to-fix-it instructions. Google will not serve as an editor in any way, and will not bless any content. All editorial responsibilities and control will rest with the authors. We hope that knols will include the opinions and points of view of the authors who will put their reputation on the line. Anyone will be free to write. For many topics, there will likely be competing knols on the same subject. Competition of ideas is a good thing.

Danny Sullivan, an editor of Search Engine Land speculates, "Google’s goal of making Knol pages easy to find on search engines could conflict with its need to remain unbiased."

We would love to hear about your thoughts on this,
Will Google favor Knol over Wikipedia ?

Top 10 Rapidshare Search Engines


Rapidshare Search Engine

RapidShare is the world leader in one-click file hosting arena, despite being the most popular file-sharing service rapidshare.com lacks file search feature, the only reason I can assume they lack this feature is to avoid searching of copyrighted files by their legal owners getting illegally distributed by this pirate friendly file-hosting service.
