And this is Buddy Ping, written , and concerning Rants
Some, or indeed all, of you might have received an email from me inviting you to try out a service called "buddyPing". I didn't mean to send them. It looks like a faintly useful service, so I thought I'd try it out, and it offers a facility to import your Gmail address book. I thought that that would add all those people to my list of buddyPing contacts. Instead, it mailed them all, everyone, to ask them if they'd like to become a buddyPing contact.
Sorry about that.
I shall mention to the buddyPing team that it might want to say "this is about to send email to everyone you've ever met; are you sure you want to do that?" or warn you first or something...

Bugger. I've just made exactly the same mistake.
Looked like plain old spam to me, so deleted every one of the fifteen or so mails it sent me :)
I did wonder - I thought I'd come here and demand that you explain yourself, Sir! And you have...so fair enough :-)
Two copies, one to maiden name, one to married name, both caught by spam filter. Hmm, haven't checked home yet, so probably 3 copies!

Oops! Sorry about that mate, I thought I had turned on the warning before it sent the emails. Apologies from buddyPing to everyone who was sent the email!
