| 606065 | 2007-10-28 22:49:00 | bebo is a social network where you can keep in touch with your friends and family. It's rather popular with the teenage generation who send out invites to all and sundry. :rolleyes: Who knows where they got your email addy. I've received quite a few from people I know as well as strangers and have ignored the lot of them. :p There was a poll and discussion about these networks not long ago here (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz). |

| 606067 | 2007-10-28 23:35:00 | Ummm yeah... I unintentionally clobbered everyone on my msn list (including all three of you), didn't quite realise what I was choosing. Just ignore me. :groan: | Erayd (23) | ||
| 606068 | 2007-10-29 01:31:00 | Ok, so now that you can blame Bletch, all you have to do is accept or reject their offer. If you ignore, it'll just keep popping back up occasionally. Its our Facebook or Orkut really. Its OK if you're into those sort of sites to keep in touch but it gets boring rather quickly, especially Bebo. |

| 606072 | 2007-10-29 06:35:00 | Bebo, facebook etc ask users to 'connect' their friends by asking the users to give them (the social networking website) the users email address and password, they then retrieve EVERY email address saved in the users contacts and emails EVERY contact a 'friend invite'. | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||
| 606073 | 2007-10-29 08:25:00 | Yeah... call me foolish, but I thought I was telling it to search bebo for those addresses to see if anyone else had a profile - not send an email to every contact on my list! | Erayd (23) | ||
