I recently got an invite to join Shelfari through email and I decided to join. It suggested that I sign into my gmail address book so I could look up who's already on shelfari. It showed me a (rather small) list of people already on the network and I intended to send them add requests. Instead what seems to have happened is that every person/unit I have had any correspondence with through my gmail id was sent an invite. Uggh. I do not like the idea of gmail being smart enough to store every email address I communicate with. Stop watching so carefully and ask me if I want to save any of these.

So, if you got such an email from me, apologies. It was unintentional.
