There was a time when Orkut was the talk of the town and every single person had an active account on the Orkut but over a period of time, the mindset of people has changed and the previous conception about the facebook that facebook is harder to understand and Orkut is simpler to understand. The fact about the failure of Orkut is due to only reason that Orkut never believed in applications or separate plugins as it generalized the concept of apps and plugins and in fact Orkut also came out with more complex structures like new contents, new themes, new layouts etc. which after a certain level even made itself look messed up and also very difficult and so does the complexity of the facebook remained same and eventually it was the facebook which has recently started to become popular as facebook is a better managed place where the apps, plugins and also the layout is kept simple with just three basic colours like grey, blue and mostly white. Also, the additionally, the facebook has over the period of time has moved on with the needs of the users but never hasted things until and unless it was necessity or the need.
