For All football Fanatics

Hello Quizzers and Soccer Studs,

With the World Cup just around the corner, the topics of conversation have drifted from Dhoni and Ponting to Ronaldinho and Zidane. To add to that the other craze of Brazil, besides soccer of course, is also fast catching on in India's e-World. Yes we are talking about Orkut.com . If you are still not a part of this craze then all you require is a gmail account and an invite from a friend already on Orkut.

Now comes the best part. For those of you who do not know, Orkut and Nike have come up with a new platform, exactly like Orkut, and the same account details work, but with a twist. It is dedicated entirely to Soccer and the World Cup. Its called Joga.com and if you have an Orkut account I suggest you can give it a shot, or a kick maybe:)

Quizzically Yours,
Suhel
