    The ads are showing up on communities (under topics) and search pages. And the ads show up only if there are relavent ads available.

    Btw, if anyone needs an orkut invitation.. Drop me a PM.

    orkut is an Internet social network service run by Google and named after its creator, Google employee Orkut. Similar to Friendster and MySpace, orkut goes a step further by permitting the creation of communities of users.

    Its actually a good idea if the community owner is allowed to add his/her pub id .. Something similar to blogspot :)

    It's something very normal, Google needs the money to keep alive and offer services, or you want to earn alone ? lol

    They are targetting specific countries only at the moment I believe, I still can't see the ads in communities or posts. Thank you for the screenshot mypalsonline. As for pub-ids at orkut.. I can just hope that this doesn't happen.

    I find orkut much better than myspace and hi5. Though the looks are very simple, it offers a lot more useful features...!!
