Angle Theory Shortcuts – just amusing or really useful ?

PRLog informs that some Indian boys have come up with shortcuts to Google, Orkut, Yahoomail & Microsoft etc. Want to access Orkut? Then type ookkmm.Com. Simple and easy.More enlightment from the press release:

These are a couple of the many keyboard shortcuts brought out by eight net-savvy youth from India using their "angle theory".
According to them, the whole concept is to overcome the language barrier while surfing.
So what if one does not know English. Just follow the shortcuts invented by the dot com company to log on to your favorite sites, the youths claimed.
Demonstrating their invention, managing director of www.Atoall.Com, Sanjeev Kumar, said one has to type three letters twice on the keyboard which are in a straight line, ‘C’ or inverted ‘C’, ‘V’ or inverted ‘V’ twice followed by dot (.) com.
For example, if one wants to open a gaming site, then he can type the keyboard letters "m, j and n" that are in an inverted "V" shape — mmjjnn.Com.
Kumar said multi-language search engines have been used in the concept.

My question, if language is the barrier and typing Orkut is really really difficult for me, Why do I need to go there ? Is reaching to the domain / site really that difficult and if it is the real difficulty – then what about sign in, sign up, forget password, privacy policy, terms of use, navigation, content, activities.

Anyways, I am not the expert on angle theory, so best luck guys. At least some one is developing something in India and something original :)
