Know Your Orkut Membership Number !

If u ever wondered about ur uid i.e. user ID on orkut then don’t check out uid part of ur orkut profile link!

e.g.: in following link…

http://www.orkut.com/Profile.aspx?uid=8047825869783710708

uid=8047825869783710708 does not indicate my membership no. or registration no. on orkut!

Then how to know ur real Orkut Membership Number??? Wel Gaurav gotta answer already!

#Trick:

1. Right click on your profile’s photo or any other photo from album/scrapbook, etc.

2. Select for ‘save image as’ option.

3. The default name number for your photo is ur actual Orkut Membership Number!.

4. That’s the orkut membership no.

#Proof 1:
All images by a single user have same name number!

#Proof 2:
U can verify this with first 5 member of orkut!

  1. Orkut Buyukkokten
  2. Joe Sriver
  3. Evan Williams
  4. Bay-Wei Chang
  5. Frank Jernigan

#Proof 3:
Wait this works for community too! When u wil try to save following community Image, u’ll get no. 19587001.
