R.I.P Orkut : Take backup of your Scrap


By on 11:27 PM


Orkut after a decade long run has been shutting down it's door from today as Google decided. We remember, it was the Orkut on which many of us created our first account not the Facebook. Orkut was the one who revolutionized the social media. What will happen to your photos, scraps and communities? 

Google has said that it will "preserve" public information in its archives. Here is how you can take backup of everything. First you can take out every photos, you can export your photos to your Google+ account vising http://www.orkut.com/AlbumsExport or you can head over to the Google Takeout, it lets you download your profile, received scraps, received testimonials activities and photos in a zip file. Follow this steps :

  1. Go to the Google Takeout page
  2. Click Choose services and then select Orkut.
  3. Click Create archive. 
  4. When it’s ready, click Download.
Many of you even might not be using Orkut for too long, but its always a nice feeling when we go into the past stuff. We Recommend you to visit your Orkut profile last time today, if you are reading this now. R.I.P Orkut.
