How about contact details in Orkut synchronised with GMail contacts - you'd see your own entered details and theirs, and could change your details to what they had with a button press! Allow people to make groups using the Google Groups system, and display locations using the Google Maps API. Connect it with photos on Picasa Web (and of course add tagging) and even Google Notebook and Reader so people can share their information.It would be a lot of work, but so worth it. Or just buy Facebook and be done with it. If Google truly want to compete with network giants like Facebook and Beebo (the former truly a fantastic system) they need even more integration.
