      I think that you should be hesitant. I know of others who have used similar services and found that soon after joining everyone in their address book was being spammed like crazy despite so called privacy statements ensuring that their data was private and would not be passed on to third parties. In that situation you have to prove that they did something wrong which is impossible and you can't undo the damage that has already been done.

          I'm plagued by people inviting me to join. And I'd advise you to stay away from it like (pardon the pun) the plague. :^) Cheers, Vikram.
