Claim Text:
1. A method comprising: providing a selectable user interface that enables a member of an electronic social network application to generate an electronic invite to a recipient; receiving an identifier of the recipient of the electronic invite; automatically augmenting the electronic invite with personally identifying information pertaining to the recipient, the identifying information comprising at least one item of information known only by a limited group of people prior to the electronic invite being generated, the limited group of people including the recipient and the member associated with the augmented electronic invite, wherein the identifying information is known from prior social interactions of the recipient and member; automatically spoofing a source identifier of the augmented electronic invite to make the augmented electronic invite appear to be originating from the member rather than from a server device, the spoofing being implemented to minimize a likelihood that the augmented electronic invite is interpreted as spam; transmitting a first portion of the augmented electronic invite to the recipient; receiving a request from the recipient to access another portion of the augmented electronic invite; determining a capability of a computing device associated with the request; and transmitting a second portion of the augmented electronic invite to the recipient with link information to a version of the electronic social networking application configured to be compatible with the capability of the computing device.
