Orkut, It's Faster Than Friendster

I am having fun with Orkut (Thanks for the invite Kentaro!). It's just so much faster than Friendster. When I first started to use Friendster, the simple pleasure I got from adding friends was enough to ignore the slow site. But after awhile it just seemed to take forever. With Orkut, I logged in, updated my profile, added a bunch of friends, joined a couple of communities, shared some karma, and even started to organize groups of friends/acquaintances. All within about an hour.

I wonder why they used .Net stuff for Orkut. Maybe they setup a new Google cluster based on Micro$oft technology.
