METHOD OF VIRALLY EXPANDING SOCIAL NETWORKS |
摘要 |
Membership in a social network is virally expanded by suggesting to a user to invite contacts from the user's address book and, in addition, eligible contacts from other address books. Eligible contacts from other address books include those contacts that have e-mail addresses with the same e-mail domain as the user's e-mail address. |
