Vellas, by the way are people who have too much time and not enough stuff to do. And like the word "guru" this should be included in the english language because there are so many of them.
Unlike most people who cannot seem to find enough time to do things that are really important to them, like read a book, meet an old friend, spend time with family, these people always have excess time. Lucky them.
Orkut.com recently wrote a blog post about this new feature where you can access your orkut.com service from IPhone and they called it "Orkut on IPhone: A Socialites dream come true". Sometime, or most times, i wonder how do people make time to scrap each other the whole day.
I have also seen people scraping each other when they could easily IM(both being online), or email, or call.
Sometimes i feel people use messaging on social networks in cases when they "sorta want to be in touch" but not "too much".
I mean hey i messaged you, once, on orkut, i like to stay in touch you know. Its like an excuse, a formality.
People who really care would much rather have a meeting, a call, an IM or email. And in that order.
This is one reason why marketeers do not want to reach masses on social networks, they don't want to reach out to this segment of consumers, they sorta, don't wanna be in touch with you much you know, but hey maybe they will scrap you. Just maybe.
