Looks like overnight the Perl community pretty much took over Orkut. I woke up to find I had 29 friends.
If you're a member and you want to add me as a friend, then here's my profile.
Mind you, I'm starting to lose track of all the social networking web sites that I'm a member of :-/

Well, you can feel good in that you too have a purpose. You're one of the people we don't let in so we can feel like we're in a real hip clique;) Re:Not me

Yeah, but with the amount of people that are saying that they have been let in, jplindstrom (hi btw) and I are now in the the real hip clique;-}

From their faq : orkut.com is a new social networking service named for the Google engineer who developed it, Orkut Buyukkokten. Looks like a Finnish name to me.Re:Heh

> Orkut Buyukkokten
Ummm, no. It's got the right ratio of letters 'k', but no. Turkish, maybe.

Maybe. That said, that would not be the first time that a forename has a double meaning. For example "Robert" is French slang for boobs and "Jules" for W.C. (Makes me think about Austin Powers II for some reason.)Re:Heh

Yeah, and don't forget Dick Cheney and Dick Hardt... Nevertheless, I can assure "Orgasms" is not a Finnish first name:-) and the second one is no Finnish, either.
