I also did. Although it was a long time ago then the vague memory of it is that it was pretty similar to facebook, perhaps the minus the advertising. But groups and friends were there, could leave testimonials, send messages, etc.

So, in your opinion was it better than Facebook?

This is hard to say (and it was a long time ago!).

Perhaps Orkut was more predictable in what you got to see, but fb does need to have an algo to show the feed since you can't sift through all of it..
