Mixi says that my invitation function is currently disabled, notifying that they ban the act of inviting, in public, someone I don’t “know” such as in the bulletin board. In my previous post (a blog, that is), I showed how to set up a mixi account in a tutorial style but I didn’t say that I will send an invitation, even though many have asked me to do so.
I think It is at best ambiguous as to if I am the one who invited the person that I don’t know; and without defining the act of “knowing” means in this context (menshiki no nai or é¢è˜ã®ãªã„ in Japanese again still ambiguous even in its original language.) All I can say is many if not most online friends (i dare call so) are those I haven’t met in person. Especially in an ‘open is the new proprietary’ world, I think mixi should be more clear on this.
Update: I think the real question that MIXI should ask is how do we know we know each other? I bet a substantial portion of maimiku (buddy or friend by invitation or by authorization) don’t, in fact, know each other; yet, the meaning of “know” might vary among the users of that particular term.
Update2: I learned mixi joined openID project with a bunch of other prestigious internet players in Japan. But not sure how they will solve the problem like this.

Did they really restict you this way? Unbelievable.
Yup, it has been like this over a year or so.
Pete,
I forgot to say we haven’t met in person but I think we know each other, just like many other online friends I know. Right?
Yes, that’s the case. But I do not remember how we ran into each other. I think it could have been Orkut.

Hello would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
Superb site you have here but I was curious if you knew of any community forums that cover the same topics discussed here?
