Break out the turkey and stuffing— it's time for Thanksgiving!

Posted on 6:23 AM by Unknown
Remember when we mentioned that the orkut team would celebrate festive dates around the world? Well, it's time for Thanksgiving!

Lots of food, football games, parades and plenty of time to spend with the people you cherish most in your life. These things are all inescapable parts of Thanksgiving day. But who would want to escape from them anyway?

Thanksgiving is one of the most traditional holidays in the United States, having taken place since 1621. Celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November each year, this holiday is about expressing gratitude for all of the positive things in your life.

Over time, Thanksgiving has become increasingly important in countries outside of the US. If you'd like to participate in the fun, you can use the Superscrap Open Social application to send messages to your friends and loved ones on orkut.

If you haven't logged into orkut yet today, make sure you do so that you can check out our special Thanksgiving doodle in action:


And, oh, be sure to prepare your stomach— Thanksgiving is filled with plenty of food and culinary treats. So much so that in the US, it's known as Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
