Actually whenever you join any of these social networking sites they offer
to import your email contacts and invite everyone who's email you have to
add your profile. It's not spam in the classic sense it's just that enrique
got click happy and didn't realise he was not only hitting the list with it
but every single contact he has in his gmail or hotmail or whatever he
imported.

Not malicious..more unconcious than anything.

Considering how many of his "friends" will write to him today saying "wtf is
this email you sent me" I'm sure he'll read more closely before blindly
clicking next from now on! lol
