How to Find a Map of Your Friends on Orkut

By Marziah Karch, About.com

If you have an Orkut account, you can easily view a map of where your friends are located around the world.

This map is actually a mashup of Orkut information and Google Maps.

Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: 30 seconds
Here's How:
  1. Log into Orkut at www.orkut.com. You must have an account. If you don't have an account, you can only obtain one by being invited by a friend with an account.
  2. Press the view friends button. It is located on the right-hand side of the page underneath the box labeled my friends.
  3. Click on the friends map link. It's towards the top middle of the page.

    That's it. Your friends will be represented by an outline of a person standing on the map. You can only see friends who have listed their location in their profile and specified a country, city, and state or province.

What You Need:
  • An account on Orkut
  • At least one friend on Orkut who has specified their location
