Compare Your Typing Speed With Other Friends on Orkut - Live
You can now add OpenSocial applications to your Orkut profile just like way you add apps in Facebook. Your friends can see list and your interactions get published to your Orkut news feed.
Currently the Orkut directory includes only a limited number of applications but a very interesting app, that you would even miss in Facebook, is this TypeRacer typing game.
It’s an online racing game where you can compare your typing speed with other Orkut friends in real-time. The faster you type, the sooner your car will hit the finish line. Extremely addictive.
For those who are not on Orkut, they can still enjoy the game at typeracer.com but with anonymous people.
Coming back to Orkut apps, you can add a maximum of 25 apps to your profile. That’s different from Facebook where you can clutter your own profile page with infinite number of apps.
And in case you like to connect, here’s my Orkut page.

Just loving this game..I think the applet feature is not yet enabled everywhere..At least in Pakistan, as far as I know!
Hi,
Sir i was expecting post on this topic on your blog.
These applications are new (only 2 days ) in INDIA but they were available if it would be ESTONIA.
I once ( 20+ days back) just changed my country name to ESTONIA and i figured out these features and really loved these so i didn’t changed them back ;). Now they are available for INDIA too. Really good news and these applications have made ORKUT more interesting.
Thanks.
Bhanu.
why these games are not enable in pakistan..?
whenever we hit these links a page comes up with notification..
the url not exits
plz help
It’ll be enabled in Pakistan soon as in India.
If you want to enjoy these applications then you just have to change country to India OR Estonia(as i tried) in your profile settings.
They will be soon available in Pakistan too m sure orkut is working upon it.
Enjoy!!!
Thanks..
