Just passing this along:
...they read your address book and spam everyone in it with invitations ostensibly from you.
I'm guessing that this is dependant on one using somes sort of Microsloth address book???

No, they do it with gmail and some others.
From what I read, if you're watching, you won't have too much of a problem - they ask for your address book to "check if anyone you know is already registered". But then they send out invitations to everyone, without telling you what they're doing.

Last night, I got an invitation from a "friend" to join a social networking site called Quechup. The problem is, this "friend" was a former co-worker who really didn't even know me. So I checked it out a bit. Googling "quechup" came up with the site as the #1 hit, and countless other pages complaining about how they read your address book and spam everyone in it with invitations ostensibly from you.
I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound like the sort of site I would want to be a member of. If you get such an invitation, it probably woule be a good idea to at least check it out before accepting.
