Is Gmail creating a network of contacts through invitations?

I've just made a gmail account and this question intrigued me...

Looking forward to your thoughts...

You don't happen to have a referral do you?

In answer to your question, I don't know. But what I do know is that if you invite someone and they accept, their new gmail address is automatically added to your address book, and yours will be in theirs the moment their account is created. Now, if they go and invite someone, it doesn't make it back to me. So the network of contacts stays limited between the inviter and invitee. What are they doing with this behind the scenes? That is anyone's guess.

But I like my gmail, so I will stick with it.

Anyone who wants an invite, just let me know. 11 or so are up for grabs.
