How to Sign Up for Orkut

Create Account
1. Visit Orkut.com and click the 'Create an Account' link, which will prompt you to create a Google account. Such an account also gives you access to features such as Google Apps, Adsense and other existing services. Note that a Google account requires an existing email address as your main sign-in ID. If you don't possess a secondary address, you may sign up for Orkut by creating a Gmail email account.
2. Enter the required information, depending on which option you select. For example, aside from an existing email address, a Google account requires the creation of a password, your country of residence and your birthday information. Gmail accounts require the creation of your email ID, your full name and a security question in the event you forget your credentials.

3. Finish the sign-up process by reading Google's license agreement, entering the required security code and clicking 'I Accept,' which applies to both Gmail and Google accounts. If signing up for a Google account, you will be subsequently prompted to verify it by logging in to the existing email address you had initially provided. Sign in as requested and click 'Yes' to allow Google access to the address specified, which is used to connect it to Orkut and other Google services.
