If you are using Chrome, and open Orkut in it, it is showing a message 'Awesome, you're using Google Chrome! Don't forget to feed it donuts!'

However if you open orkut in any other browser, it asks you politely to try Chrome

Hi!!!

How come Google is related to Donuts??

"Awesome, you're using Google Chrome! Don't forget to feed it donuts!"

Is any new feature available which I don't know??

It's an orkut thing i guess ... An interesting classic orkut error message is "Bad server, no donut for you" ;)

What they probably mean is to report bugs so that they can fix it!!!!

Quote such as “Feeding donuts to Chrome” should have been properly elaborated for the sake of disambiguation but there is no link associated with this message to elaborate the statement..
According to us,this is an indirect way of convincing a Chrome user to enable an option of sending user’s usage statistics to Google for their analysis.
