On April 2 2007, a new social networking site is started from kerala. Its name is www.orkube.com .It is started by two students from alappuzha, vinil richard and kiran joshy.This site is in beta testing stage and the official launching is on june.The main feature of this website is, it has the facility of the world famous social networking site orkut and video sharing portal youtube. Hence the name orkut+ youtube=orkube.com
Orkube.com now offers a mp4 player to its new coming members every month.
I like the name that give the guys behind this site

Appreciate your efforts to clone Orkut / YouTube.

But why not making something new instaed of clones ?

We all know there are thousands of so called 'social networking' or 'video sharing' sites but Orkut and YouTube will remain the best atleast for the time being.

Even other members of Digit forum are making Orkut clone, but why ?

Your age does not matter at all. There are kids who make website and does web programming at the age of 14 and 15. But your post sounds like you are advertising here.

Also the site is for social networking or revenue generation by google ads ?

Again, keep it up, but make something new and stop cloning something and adding a lot of google ads. Please.
