Support to Orkut

Guys, i don't know if this is in your plans, but i think it's a good idea to implement support to Orkut and similars.

I'm talking from Brazil and here Orkut is famous, lots of people use it, or i can say, EVERY PEOPLE has an account there :P, even me that doesn't like Orkut but i have because of all my friends.

So, i think if you put support to Orkut in Flock, here you will get much, much users to your software because these Orkut's users use blogs, bookmarks, photos, etc too.

Think in that! ;-)

Agree!! I'm from Brazil too and Orkut here is huge, you should consider supporting it. And it's not just in Brazil, I read recently that in India Orkut is also the main social network. Orkut in Flock!!

Hey folks,

Two votes logged for orkut. We'll take a look at which services are most requested, how easy they are to integrate, and how they fit into the Flock concept in our next round of integration.

Yes - I also vote. Orkut's user base is quite high and it will be a great idea to integrate orkut into flock! Thanks to consider it seriously.

Yes, Orkut, for sure.

I would put a banner on Curioso, a site with +500k users as soon as Flock supports Orkut.

Hi! I am from India. Orkut is most popular social networking web site in India. All most all internet usres have orkut account here. It will be great to integrate orkut in Flock.

I agree too,
Orkut is a must for a social browser like flock!! People live on orkut these days.. Its more important than facebook at some locations..

Now, when you are integrating with picasa / gmail / (in short google accounts), i think orkut is logically next step..

What say..

I'm already using Flock as my main browser (I were using firefox before this). It's very good and integrates the online services I use the most. Except Orkut (I'm form Brazil). So I'd like to have this integration in a future version.
Thanks.

Support to orkut..gmail ....picasa...linked in ...is a must for flock to succeed

Orkut is most popular social networking web site in Brazil.

Bruno Daniel

February 27, 2008 - 5:44am

Count another vote in my name. Flock is already my default browser (Firefox was the previous) and I'm sure suporting Orkut would greatly increase the user base of Flock in Brazil, as the lack of suport for this service here is one of the things that keep people from installing and using Flock.

Orkut, yes. +1 (from Brazil).
In fact, every google service deserves a look. I'm an "office" guy and use every single google product: notebook, calendar, docs, mail, picasa and so on. The main reason I open Flock is to check on my social network and orkut is part of it.

Thanks for considering it :)

Hi Evan,
I'm from the US and would also like to add my vote.
+1 for Orkut

Sorry, I don't see how the request votes could possibly really work. You guys should be looking into the amount of traffic each of those sites have in order to accumulate Flock downloaders.

Cheers,
P.S.: I echo Rafael.

oh u guys have to implement orkut on flock .... and i hope my reasons are compelling enough!!!!lol
1) i use flock all the time, since i have switched from other browsers!!...and i love, with all the features and connectivity it offers to all the networking sites and ease of use!
2)with more than a billion people in india, more than 90% of the people on social networking sites, are on orkut...google did hit a home run with that in india... believe me, if marketed well in india, people would switch to flock just for that feature!!
3)even brazil has a high % of ppl on orkut!
4)please do it!!!

@Roland: We don't choose which services to integrate singularly based on community votes. We look at traffic, how they fit with our brand, if they have an API, if we can significantly integrate them, etc. Community votes are just one, important, part of the process.

people live on ORKUT in India... its like a must have social networking in India. And it goes well with gmail. When can we see Orkut on FLOCK?

Ashish

May 13, 2008 - 7:37am

Add another +1 for Orkut; it's started adding on web applications like FB. I don't know if that means it has upgraded it's API for integration, but it's worth exploring. But if yes - when shall I see it on Flock? :) pretty please?

For a complete social networking integrated web browser, we definitely need orkut . Not just due to the sheer number of users. Still waiting for orkut support. Log my vote and just how many votes do you need to get it up and running?
