OK, bleagggghh. The note telling me Orkut was back online was fine, till the sign off. STAY BEAUTIFUL? Ewwwww....

Dear John,

We're back!

The response to orkut has been phenomenal, and we're
learning a lot about what people like and expect from
a service like this. Thanks for all your feedback so
far -- we've really loved your suggestions.

We took orkut.com offline for a while to build some new
features and do some general tweaking. We hope you'll
keep sending your ideas to us, because we want to make
orkut great for you. That said, we may need to take
orkut offline again for short periods to update it, so
please bear with us if it's temporarily unavailable.
Hopefully the changes will be worth the wait. We'll
see you on orkut soon...

stay beautiful,
orkut.com team
