ahem ! please exclude mailing lists when sending invitation .:D
These are automated invitations and the Facebook folks force you to
give them your GMail password and flood everyone with invites. They
promise to resepct your privacy, though.
After hearing Andrew Cowie at FOSS.IN, I left Facebook and Orkut. I
recommend that all Facebook users review the Facebook license
agreement. IIUC, they maintain the right to use your information as
they please and even to disclose all your "private" messages to public
domain. AfC recommended that all FOSS supporters should avoid such
things where you don't have the real "freedom". GMail was one of them,
but that waits till I get my own domain name :-)
Maybe you should consider this. I didn't lose much signing off from
Facebook - I only gained more time to spend on more useful things.
Regards
Akarsh
