How to find friends onTwine?

Get Feed

How can I find friends I have on Twitter, Google, FriendFeed, etc. on Twine?

I found an invite option, but this does not tell me, if my friends are already on Twine. It just allows me to invite them? I do not want to do this. First, do I not want to spam them. Second, what if they are already on Twine?

More insights are more than welcome.

      Three possible options that I can think of...

      #1--You can use the Find button at the top of this page, but this will only work if you happen to know their user name already. If they're connections you have elsewhere, you can try searching on the name/avatar you already know.

      Change the toggle next to Find to show Find/Members, and then enter the username you want to search for. IF they are on Twine, AND they use the same member name as the other networks you connect with them as, then you'll probably find them pretty easily.

      Here is the search link that was generated when I looked for your member name: http://www.twine.com/search?type=Member&text=Joerg+Kurt+Wegner

      #2--Ask them via your other network connections. Twine itself doesn't really have an easy way to view members, and find specific ones. You can use this search: http://www.twine.com/search?type=Member and it will give you every member account out there, that you can sort by most recent or most recently changed, but it's not very helpful, and there are currently more than 170,000 member accounts to sift through, so asking is a much quicker route.

      #3--Just use the Invite People to Twine button, and enter their email accounts. There are also options to enter Twitter, Gmail, and Yahoo accounts as well. If they're already members, they can at least reply to you that they are, and if not, perhaps you'll gain some new connections!

      good luck.
