I'm a huge fan of making introductions, but remember the double-opt-in introduction:<p><a href="http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2009/11/the-double-optin-introduction.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2009/11/the-double-optin-introductio...</a><p>it's the right way to go about doing this, so you don't inadvertently waste people's time, leak information about something that wasn't public, etc.
