Orkut – Q&A in your private network

Google’s hugely popular social networking platform, Orkut has added a new feature Ask Friends that will let users ask Questions and get Answers. The Questions can be directed to specific friend in your network or Google’s way of doing things intelligently is to let the system decide who should take the question, it will weigh on various parameters and then send the question to selected friend/s in your network.

As the battle for supremacy in Social Networks get hotter, expect more and more features to be rolled out by orkut apart from the Open Social initiative. Also orkut has opened APIs for developers.
