In fact, I know Christian really well and the philistine STILL didn't invite me to Multiply! Harumph.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;More seriously, do we really need Yet Another Networking Site? It's like printing up 1000 business cards just to find that you've dropped them all into 1000 "win a free lunch" bowls and forgotten to actually *use* your cards to network. :-)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh, my two cents on the generic invite topic:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;a href="http://www.intuitive.com/blog/how_not_to_connect_on_linkedin.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.intuitive.com/blog/how_not_to_connect_on_linkedin.html"&gt;http://www.intuitive.com/bl...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dave Taylor</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 20 Sep 2005 14:20:33 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Canned messages are lame</title><link>http://www.thevirtualhandshake.com/blog/2004/08/19/canned-messages-are-lame#comment-8723604</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Interesting that Multiply can import Orkut and Friendster contacts and their email addresses by asking you for your password on those sites. That all looks pretty dubious against their T&amp;amp;Cs.; And it's pretty questionable that you should give multiply your password on other sites.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But why can't they process the lists and find the people who are already on Multiply?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Julian Bond</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 19 Aug 2004 02:54:38 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
