Is orkut better than fb?

    Personally i like the themes that orkut has to offer as compared to facebook. Facebook is very "white". Plus fb has too much security. What do you guys think?

    Facebook is NO. 1 social bookmarking site of the world and is No. 4 in the top websites acc. to the alexa ratings.
    Orkut is not better than facebook in any manner. I like facebook too much and rarely use orkut.

    You can say Facebook has better integration with other web services like Twitter, Youtube, Flickr, Picasa, Last.fm, your blog feeds, etc. All your activities on these sites are shown on your FB and everything is commentable as posts. Whereas on Orkut, you can only comment on Photos and in scrapbooks, nowhere else. Plus multiple people can comment on your post/status as threads, whereas on Orkut it's only one-to-one communication. I also love how Facebook has strict rules for names, unlike how you notice people using such fancy names on Orkut because of which you can never tell them apart.

    I've primarily switched to Facebook myself, but maybe yeah, community features could be said to be better on Orkut.

    Orkut is no doubt simple to use very friendly and open to all which have been restricted to some extent Where as Facebook is sophisticated and had professional look which new user find very difficult .
