It was revealed a week or so ago that Orkut is a project for a graduate student's dissertation. It was all ever about data-gathering for him. Which explains the very odd terms of service (basically everything you ever wrote or said there was theirs to do with as they please, including retransmitting, republishing, selling, etc).

Since that hit the news, the buzz has been dramatically less.
