MUMBAI: Orkut.com, the social networking site owned by internet search giant Google, is all set to wear a new look.

As part of the makeover, Google is adding new features to the site to make it faster and easier for users. 
 
Initially, as part of the initiative, Orkut will make its new features available to selected users and communities. Later, the features will be made available to other Orkut subscribers via invitation. 
 
The features will allow users to upload, scrap videos, video chat with Google Talk users, change skins and personalise the profile. Orkut also has increased the space limit to 140 characters for users‘ status message.

Orkut has 80 million active users, a major part of which comes from Brazil and India.
