If you are still scratching your head as to what that title means, here’s what - Orkut (now please dont tell me you havnt heard that name!) has been voted as the Pepsi & MTV Youth Icon of the Year 2007.

MTV Youth Icon - Orkut


This comes as a welcome relief to all those associated with this hugely attractive networking website. After staying in the news lately for all the wrong reasons(be it hate communities, terrorist activities thriving under its nose, stolen passwords and what not) this would certainly bring smiles in many a faces. :)

Orkut came out trumps over its other 4 co-nominees that included the likes of Bollywood heartthrob Abhishek Bachchan, multiple award winner Rang De Basanti, the Multimedia Cellphone and You(th).



Some previous winners include some big names like Mahendra Singh Dhoni (2006), Shah Rukh Khan (2005), Rahul Dravid (2004) and Anil Ambani (2003). Interestinly, Orkut had also bagged the PC World India’s Award for the “Best Social Networking Website earlier this year.
BTW, who would you have voted for?Chalo see ya all soon. :) Happy weekends and Happy Kutkuting (oops! i mean orkutting). :)
