Hi,

I was reading an article over Christmas / New Year, it was MSN or Yahoo I think. It was about how sites like Facebook etc. go viral. One thing mentioned is being able to invite friends form your email contact list.

Wouldn't it be cool if users signed up to a board hosted on IP Board could invite friends to join the board.

More members on the boards, more users online, more dough for Invision !!!

I know it may not be that easy, getting to interface with gmail, hotmail, yahoo etc. Maybe at the very least you code a way to load csv files of contact lists then invite friends ??

Cheers,
James.

It's not a bad idea. I doubt most people on any given contact list would actually sign up to some random site, but it could definitely help bring in a few new faces.

It's a good idea would be so much better network of friends and avoid more spam
