Here i am going to discuss 5 reasons which i feel where responsible for orkut’s death which was inturn commited by current social networking Giant Facebook

1. User interest – Orkut captured users because of its interesting profile system, communities, groups etc
But as we say Humans tend to lose interest if not provided with regular change.[as in case of girlfriends and boyfriends lol ]Orkut tried to change its user interface but it was too late and messy.

2. User Applications – Users Were no more interested in the traditional peeping into each other profiles and were in need of something interactive ,applications were introduced but even they could not hold people on.

3.Lack Of Products – Orkut failed to introduce new products at the right time, by which i mean both the business and social products for different type of users.

4.Negative Publicity – And thanks to all the issues related privacy, bugs, hacking and so on people started moving away from it, which led to its Natural Death.

The last but not the least

5.The so called Blue Poison FACEBOOK – Now nobody imagined this thing that a college created social site would grow so much due to its freshness and right things,gradually facebook emerged as the best option for people to socialize. Due to its right things at right places , technically sound, and innovative products for everyone, IT somewhat KILLED ORKUT.

But i still think like every thing it has a expiry date , but lets enjoy the party till it exists. Happy Socializing.
