Inviting all your Gmail Contacts To Orkut

Eventhough Orkut and Gmail are from the same 'server' of Google, they didnot provide any provision to invite the gmail contacts to orkut as the provision in the Google talk to invite gmail contacts. But orkut do provide an option to invite multiple friends. Here is a simple way by which you can add your gmail contacts.

Method 1:
If you wish to invite all your gmail contacts, open gmail and go to your contacts. There you have an option to export the contacts. Export the contacts and you will get a file with all your contact information. Save that file to local disc and open it with notepad. In the friends section or orkut there is an area where you can invite friends ( on the left hand side of orkut window ). Below the box to enter the friend's email address, there is a link to 'invite multiple friends'. Click that and you will get a text area to enter all the e-mail addresses. Copy and paste the contents from the previously exported contacts file there. You will also have to do the random word verification so as to make sure that you are a human being. That's it.

Method 2:
If you do not wish to invite all your friends but only a selected few, open gmail and go to your contacts. Select those contacts whom you wish to invite and click compose button ( on top row ). This will open the mail composer with the selected contacts in the 'to' section. Copy those address from the 'to' section and paste it in the same text area as mentioned in method one.
