*I* deas

I logged in to orkut to find a new feature that i havent noticed before,the orkut people search .Facebook had opened up the people search sometime ago but google opening this didnt get much attention though .

And more strangely the default choice is yes ,ie people can search for your name at google and it will show up your orkut profile . strange isnt it ?

while the default option in facebook was a no .I would have expected orkut people to throw up a mail or a notice on the orkut homepage before doing this .Invasion of privacy or rather misuse of it ?

you can see the this in the settings page .
