Displaying orkut profile in sidebar looks more good than your normal blog’s profile. If you are a blogger then you are just few clicks away from inserting it.Click here for more details. If you are not a blogger, here is the way to insert orkut profile in your blog or web site. Copy HTML code below & paste it in your page where you want to display orkut profile. Don’t forget to edit “Image URL”,”Profile URL”…..etc, with your appropriate profile links.
These URLs you can get by logging in to orkut & for image url right click on your pic & click on copy image location.Similarly for profile URL right click on “Profile” & click on copy shortcut. Replace these copied URLs with “Image URL”, “Profile URL” respectively. Procedure to get other URLs will be same.Do message me if you find this difficult.I will try to give you completely customized HTML code for your profile which doesn’t need any editing.

Yes, you can change background, Text & entire look of Orkut. Any way orkut is not giving you this option. First thing you need to have is most popular web browser in these times Mozilla Firefox. If you still don’t have FireFox just get it by clicking on ad @ end of this page. Firefox allows you to install extensions & plugins to enhance user experience. To change the look of Orkut you need to have an extension “Grease Monkey”.
Install it by clicking here. After installing all the requirements mentioned above install scripts to GreaseMonkey.Scripts are available at Devil’s Workshop . GreaseMonkey is a FireFox extension which allows user to change look of any web page.

Disadvantages of Using Nicknames

I saw many people using nick names in Friends networking site like orkut. The nickname which contains special characters, ex: -=|yäÞÞä|=-, ,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-(_yappa]_)-,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸.
Think why you have a profile at Orkut??? To get connected with new friends & search for old friends. Nick Names does’t affect much on first one “connected with new friends”,but will affect the second one.If any of your old friend searches for you at orkut, He/She will not found you since you kept a nickname which has special characters.
Suggestions for Putting name at Orkut:
Put a name which is very unique to you.I have kept “Prashanth” as first name & “HN” as last name.If anyone searches for prashanth hn or hn prashanth at orkut will get only 2-3 results.Then they could find me easily with the help of photo.
