Orkut Goes Mobile Silently – m.orkut.com!

Mobile Orkut Login Page Two days back, I have posted about orkut’s low bandwidth version. I concluded that post saying, Orkut could have done better by creating a dedicated mobile version like m.orkut.com….

Now thanks to Darnell, for taking pain to actually check m.orkut.com and so discovering the mobile orkut. 🙂

You can really access orkut from mobile now by going to m.orkut.com. No need to use our old days methods anymore.

The mobile orkut is centered around individuals. It supports profiles, scrapbooks, search, friend-lists, birthday reminders, friends updates, pending friend requests, etc.

Group features, those related to communities are completely omitted. Also you can not edit your profile from mobile.

You can still access communities on mobile to by switching to www.orkut.com, i.e. web-version. Of course, it will be slower.

On other hand, you can use m.orkut.com from your desktop browser like firefox. It will be much faster and cleaner than low bandwidth version of orkut, as we pointed out in earlier post.

Mobile Orkut Profile Page

The only thins surprised me is silent launch by Google. I am still confused if Orkut blog is just meant for reviewing OpenSocial Apps for orkut. In past also they did not bother to post about prominent features they launched or upgraded.

Long time back, I used to check m.orkut.com in hope for mobile orkut, but after wasting enough time, I created custom javascript bookmarks to do orkutting. That post still hold the honor of most commented post at Devils Workshop. Its little pain seeing it retire now. But as Shakespeare said, All’s Well That Ends Well.

Thanks Darnell for discovery and credits!
