Hi Guys, Orkut is the no 1 community portal of the world. I guess no one can disagree with that. But we have seen many new portals coming up after orkut but none of them matched up the success that orkut tasted. I think the reason lies in the simplicity and creativity. Cheers to ORKUT's success. lets share what oder portals ypu people like. I am enjoying MYLOT also.

In my opinion, it's because of the Publicity and the Public Target. Once Orkut was launched, it came to Brazil: Brazil didn't have any Community such as Orkut! Specially made for Brazilians, it certainly was a new thing! Soon, people started joining and inviting their friends... Orkut turned into a fever, and nowadays, almost all brazilians have it. People who doesn't use Orkut are, sometimes, excluded. Orkut is almost an obligation, even for those who can't use Internet. MyLot isn't as famous as Orkut because it doesn't have too much Publicity. None of my friends had ever heard about this great Community... After all, everything is in English! If MyLot created Portuguese versions, there would be way more people joining it.

I think Orkut's success goes is totally due to its simplicity and user friendliness. it is simple, easy to use and everything is so self explanatory. Also it was born before everything else...though a few were before Orkut...But it just brought about a craze among people and so many people around the world are in Orkut...
