How to Load Orkut Pages Faster by Blocking Images

Not all of us use high speed internet connection to access Orkut. Since Orkut shows different images on every page, like your friend’s picture, your display images, application thumbnails etc, it takes time to load all those images and serve the page. Now if you are using a low speed internet connection or want to get your job done on Orkut faster, you can block all images from being shown by selecting the Orkut’s low bandwidth version. It will help people who access Orkut using GPRS, Dial up or similar connections.

How to enable Low Bandwidth version of Orkut

  1. Login to your Orkut account.
  2. Click on Settings at the bottom of left sidebar.
  3. Block images on orkut

  6. How to select low bandwidth version of Orkut
