I get your point, but this isn't true. There are plenty of social networking sites that access your email so they can scrub your address books and spam your friends. This is ok because it isn't the site's password. It's yours. And it's your data.

I gave him my Facebook and del.icio.us because, well... they're just Facebook and del.icio.us. What's the harm? However, if he asked for my ssn and mom's maiden named... or offered to consolidate my Bank of America accont news... But it's just Facebook and del.icio.us... wtf's the harm in that?!?! -- Austin Govella Thinking & Making: IA, UX, and IxD http://thinkingandmaking.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
