Orkut members are likely to be welcomed with a “Happy Diwali” message along with a small Icon of Candle on their Orkut Home Page.

Click over the Candle Icon and theme of the page would change. A colorful and bright profile is waiting for all Orkut members!

A second click on the Candle Icon takes members back to the traditional view. Definitely a nice way to celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Light. Though originated in India, Diwali is now an international festival and is observed in all over the world. W3Guru India wishes Happy Diwali to all its readers and supporters.
