Neelam Singh's Interview





Zazo:
She is among some die hard fan of orkut.com, claiming it as a second home she is the one who owns some 150+ communities on orkut with 2000 members minimum and maximum goes to 100000 each community, Her name is Neelam Singh and you will find her community with the ownership name as “Neelam’s Commmunity” which is more like a community brand name.

This young lady in her early 20s is a engineering student and a social worker. Its a great pleasure for me to have Neelam Singh on Orkut’s Hall of Fame.

Welcome Neelam!

Neelam: Thanks for this recognition..!!
My story on orkut is very Different and special…
I joined Orkut in September 2006..
And i joined orkut bcoz.. i love to make friends but my family is very conservative,
In real life making Friends was not possible… but here on orkut i have made so many
good friends.

I created My first Community On “December 7, 2006 9:33 PM”
Name:-
FUN AND FRIENDS

Zazo: Neelam what was the reason of making the first community? what inspires you or what was your aim in making communities? only to get friends? please tell.

Neelam: Just by chatting with people you cannot know how they are…
when i used to come online 100 of them used to scrap me in a go…
unlike other Girls on orkut i used to believe
“why to avoid them who want to become my friend”
After all every one who is my friend today was once a stranger..

I created my first community so that we start interacting and knowing each other

Zazo: Neelam in just 2 years you own more than 150 different communities, please tell us that how you managed to reach on such a height? Most of your communities are having more than 2000 members and most of them are active communities.



Neelam: My community are my feelings… Those community are not my community those are my sentiments and thought.. i started giving shape to my feelings… the day i read someone eyes i created “EYES NEVER LIE” the day i have seen my friends running here and there for admission i created “ADMISSION IN PUNE” when i raised the importance of tears i created “ONE DROP OF TEAR”…. and i created “LAST PAGE OF MY NOTEBOOK” when all my secrets were caught by my mother after looking at my last page of notebook all My community are part of my memory…

Thanks to Everyone on orkut for making Neelam’s community a Brand

Zazo: Neelam what is your educational background? please tell us something about your family too.

Neelam: am doing my ENTC ENGG from MIT, PUNE
I live with my mother and brother In Ganesh Nagar, pune
I have lost My father…. when i was 14.. but i still love him

My elder Sister is perusing her study in Sydnam college, Mumbai.
My Brother is working with Infosys, Pune…

I don’t Like mixing my real Life with Orkut all the time…
There are so many things to know about me here on orkut.
I am sorry, Being a Girl i will not like to discuss much about my real life and family.

Zazo: Now this is the question everyone want to know, How do you manage so many communities together?

Neelam: I give moderator rank to the active and trust able member in the community
i don’t need to manage a community i need to keep a good understanding and friendship with my moderators.

To say the truth… My community is mine but in real meaning… it belong to my moderators… i never dominate them as a owner…. i want them to carry the feeling that the community belong to them.

Zazo: Thats great! Please tell me which is your favourite community among your 150+ communities?

Neelam: ts a real hard question it sound like
you are asking a Mother “AMONG YOUR 4 CHILDREN WHICH ONE IS YOUR MOST DEAR ONE??”

Still i have to answer this….
my most dear community are
1> Eyes Never Lie..!!
http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=25031547

2> Last page of my Note Book…!!
http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=34551004

3> CaNnOt SeE U WiTh SoMeOnE ElSe
http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=38264070

Zazo: CAN WE SEE “Neelam’s Community” outside orkut too? are you active in any other social networking sites?

Neelam: Yes i was once active on “IBIBO”
But I have quit it…..
as i forgot my profile password…
and i don’t want to create a new profile
Soon i will be coming up with my own Website
Wait till then

Zazo: Where do you like to hangout other than internet? any fav spot ?

Neelam: I love my college canteen not bcoz i find good food there but bcoz.. i get chance to chat along with my friends… There is a coffee Shop called Durga in pune… I love to go there in the Evening…

What else…??

Zazo: Managing so many communities can give you some insecurity regarding the community hack or profile hack, anything you experienced lately? What are your security tips and tricks?

Neelam: Orkut was not a safe place to built your nest…
Yes i have told “was” Because day by day orkut is working on all the loop holes that made orkut a unsafe place..

Once My community was Hacked by JOhn…. in return he asked me to pay him A huge amount through PAYPAL… and the price he asked me to pay was not th price of my community it was price of that love i have with my community.

But true love is always respected… He was a person with a beautiful Heart… before he can see those tears in my eyes he one by one returned all my community in good shape.

To live safe on orkut:-
1> Never trust anyone more then you.. and even if you trust someone 99% keep a 1% doubt on him/her.

2> Never click on any strange link and dont run a javascript until you know its source code….

3> If You Own a community…. Don’t Forget To make a co-owner (A new feature added by orkut to overcome threat of hacking.)

Zazo: Most unforgettable moment on orkut…?

Neelam: I never work alone.. I work with my friends and most of the time i don’t get Credit for my work as my partners run away with all the credit…

Its sad to say that Most Unforgettable Moment of mine on orkut is a Bad one… No one knows till today.. that i also deserved credits for “FASTEST COMMUNITY ON ORKUT BY ANKIT”as that plan and idea originated from my mind… Ankit has Implemented it… (I know when he will read this he will feel bad about me but till today i am upset about this.)

Zazo: Your goal or target to achieve in life?

Neelam: There are many in this world who want to be recognized who want Fame…. But when you ask then they will say… “I DON’T” But i am not one among them….

I want to be famous…. for what I am….. I want my skills, my talent to get recognition.. one day i want everyone to know me not only on orkut but also in real world…. and That is the Goal and dream of my life…

I am a Poet and a story writer one day when i will make lot of money i will publish my book and i know that every one will love my ideas..!!

Zazo: All the best for future Neelam and thanks for giving time for Orkut’s Hall of Fame community, its a wonderful experience talking to you.
Thank you.
Best regards,
zazo.

Neelam: Thanks for giving Me this Recognition…!!

ZOzo you are doing a great work.

“Everyone love to speak about them self….. But the person who Give recognition to others Hard work is the real hero.”


All The Best For Your Future….!!
