[geeklog-devel] GSOC - Socnet

[Jakh Daven]

Hi Randy,

Thanks for your response.

How about a 'Find my friends' and 'Invite friends'  based on gmail/yahoo
contact list?

I understand that email addresses of users are only accessible to the site
admin, so this is likely to pose a security threat. Maybe we can have a
socnet configuration setting to turn it on/off?

Thanks,
Jakh
