Now Google’s social networking site Orkut has added a new feature, that lets you to “find friends from non-Gmail account". You can find friends from your address books on Yahoo, Hotmail and AOL.
How to do that?

2) Just choose the email provider (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail or AOL), from the drop down which is on the left- hand side bottom corner of Orkut home page as shown below.

 

3) Enter the user name and password for your email account, which you have selected as the email provider in the step 1.
4) Orkut will then show you the contacts from your address book.
5) It will also show who are already on orkut.
6) The best part is that you can invite friends in bulk. Now that's a great feature in itself , what do say ?
If your email provider is not on the list, don’t feel left out, Google is working on adding more.
Note : The email provider list is not country specific, so find your friends no matter where you are, or where they are. For example, if you have a hotmail.com.in or yahoo.co.in email address, simply select “hotmail” or "yahoo" from the drop down. Remember, orkut values your privacy and security and will never store your password nor transmit it over non-secure channels.

So say my HI !! to your friends ....
