Good work Chetan.
Even I would also like to add to it..

Facebook was developed by a student of Harvard University, Mark Zuckerberg. At the beginning Facebook was limited only to the students of Harward University. But quickly Facebook spread like fire around the other major U.S. Universities. Mark Zuckerberg dropped the Harvard & pursued his dream to make Facebook a patent winner among the race of social networking sites. And today Facebook is ranked 4th in the list of most trafficked websites in the world.
Interesting fact is that the facebook.com domain name was purchased for $200,000.

I guess Orkut is on it’s last leg. I doubt it’ll have even a slight presence in the social networking world after the advent of wave. At least I’m happy noob-kingdom is dying. Facebook has less noobs, thankfully. >_>

be it Orkut or Facebook it doesn’t matter so far they are entertaining, connecting, exciting and aluring… thats what the netizens are bothered about. Hey readers by the way I’m at Twiter!

Kindly ask Tanker to read this and ask him to be more in Facebook. I am tired of telling that old man.

I feel Orkut is the mistake from which facebook earned its power and developments and became famous…
Facebook built upon a simple framework of orkut.. and came out to be successful, it modified upon the simple features and made it more user friendly, that the USP. clever thinking

Thank you so much yogesh bhaiya for your feedback.. It really matters and obviously serves as an instrument to let me write further..!

Taking your suggestion seriously, I have made a change in my post with the word ‘cartoonish’; which I myself was feeling too repetitive.

I really don’t know what is in store for Facebook in coming future (whether it is the real winner or not), but I do know that I have a fun time using it to for keeping in touch with my friends.

Keep in touch..
And thank you so much for your comment, once again.

cool work chetan..
u people r going great..

well as i am reading for the first time anything written by uit feels good to see something coming up from u..

u used the word cartoon(ish) many times in ur article…
use wordweb or something good and replace those words with sumthng else….it will give u an edge…try to play with words…

well..
as for facebook..
it is clear…simple yet complicated at times or say for the first timer who has recently come from orkut or something….

facebook has a lot of things compared to orkut…
and well organised too…

on orkut indeed they have introduced themes or say widgets…they r a real loss of our computer resources…they r a pain in the neck really…

well as of now…
facebook is the real winner with more than 250 million users crossing recently…

i guess facebook has really become what u need in a social networking website…

what say?
