Steps to get Orkut Data through Takeout

Current post is on how to get your Orkut Data through Takeout

As you might know by now, Google will be closing the Orkut by 30 September 2014. To preserve the memories you accumulated over a period of time, Orkut provides a link to download the data via Takeout

Just follow this simple steps:

Orkut - Gmail / Non-Gmail Account Login:

1. Log on to your Orkut Account
2. Copy the following url: https://www.google.com/settings/takeout/custom/orkut
3. Select Next

4. Select the File Type & Delivery Method.

I would recommend '.zip' and 'Add to Drive' option.


5. Click on 'Create Archive' Button


6. An Email is also sent to your respective account if in case you need to check out later.

Drive Download:

1. Go to your Google Drive
2. Click on TakeOut Folder


3. Click on More Button and select Download




Zip file will have following files:
  • Orkut\Profile - All your profile information and scraps
  • Orkut\Photo - All your albums

Appreciate your feedback via comments.

Thanks.
