Hi Guys,
Hopefully you can help me. In the UK we have a free mobile phone network called Blyk (www.blyk.co.uk (http://blyk.co.uk) you can learn more about it here)
As you can imagine SIM cards are very much in demand. The service, however, is invite only.
In an effort to make invites more accessible I'm building an unofficial community to share invites.
What I'm hoping you guys can help me with is an invite spooler similar to the GMail one that was doing the rounds a while back.
Functionality would be:
A choice between either I want an invite or I want to give an invite.
If I want an invite is chosen it takes you to a email entry box and probably a CAPTCHA. The I want to give an invite option takes you to a text entry box which is validated to 3 numbers 4 letters and a number (000AAAA0) and another CAPTCHA.
When someone enters and email address it gets added to a list. When someone adds an invite the email off the top of that list is sent the invite and that email address is then removed from the list.
Also useful would be some sort of validation so that the same email cannot be entered twice to prevent people filling the list with 10 copies of their email.
I know I'm asking for a lot of functionality here but hopefully one of you guys has a relatively simple answer.
Many Thanks
Grindboy
