Arguably that's an admirable POV from a security perspective, but I
confess, I allowed my half-a-dozen social networking sites one-time
access to all my webmail accounts so they could tell me who there was
that I already knew that was on the network. It's a common thing.
However, I stick to the more reputable sites, like LinkedIn, Facebook,
Myspace and Orkut; they've done nothing wrong, at least to me.
