I wonder why Google doesn't hire you ;-)
Orkut needs some attention.
One of my pet peeves is the "ethnicity" category. Maybe it's worthwhile to have such a category, but given the users more appropriate choices should be available.
It's amazing that they don't find a way to make it easier for people to create linked content there.
Merging Orkut and Blogger makes sense. But I think that widgets--or whatever Google insists on calling them--is the most important thing.
A nephew recently did a discography in Word. Of course what I wanted was document with lots of hyperlinks. Making it easy to create content at Orkut, like one can at Squidoo linked to Amazon would be nice.
A merger seems less important than way to integrate other online content. Closer integration with outside concerns like Amazon and LastFM, as well as with Google properties such as Blogspot, Pisca and YouTube seems more important.
The great thing is the plan to let outside developers figure this out!
Yes, group/social blogs seem a little over-looked... Also, orkut + google docs would be a natural companion: social blogging for news feeds, social documents for more "long-term" projects. The new wiki.
Hmm, just realised I might have been thinking about it the wrong way round there - you could use Orkut to set up a new blog/doc (as I was thinking). Or, maybe better, you could set up a network in Orkut based on your blogging movements (commenters, posters, etc). Is that what you were thinking? I think I haven't had enough caffeine this morning.
Hmm, great idea though. How about "mini-networks", rather than lumping everything together? Like, I have many blogs that I read, but some of my friends read some of those, and others read others.
OK, now I'm just wittering. I'll stop.
