I don't think that will be their business model. First of all, it's a
"free while in beta" site. They also seem to have put a bit too much
work into it for it to be a typical email harvesting site. I suspect
that when they get things ironed out, they'll start charging for the
service. By then, I'll decide if it's worth any money. in the mean
time, it's fun to play with.
I think that it would be fun to get people to list their british cars
under interests (mg, british cars, triumph, cortina ... whatever) and
see who connects where).
