    <summary type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hi there, I'd like to invite you to our exciting new social network at<br />
Craft Spider (<a href="http://craft.craftspider.com" title="http://craft.craftspider.com" rel="nofollow">http://craft.craftspider.com</a>)!!<br />
We plan on building this network up rapidly to be a fantastic and fun<br />
place to meet other crafters and to communicate with new and existing<br />
customers!<br />
Not only can you now build a detailed profile for your organisation, but<br />
also join and start user groups on any topic you wish! We also have<br />
forums, and the ability to upload and share as many photos as you want<br />
about your work, or perhaps just items that inspire you!<br />
We also have free classifieds so you can buy and sell treasures! You<br />
also get a blog.. plus we have a global calendar where you can promote<br />
events to everyone such as classes, your next sale or trade fair!<br />
You can choose to make your groups public or private (by invitation<br />
only), so its a great fun way to communicate with customers too. Also as<br />
people sign up you can make new friends and invite them to your groups.</p>

Craft Spider (<a href="http://craft.craftspider.com" title="http://craft.craftspider.com">http://craft.craftspider.com</a>)!!</p>
<p>We plan on building this network up rapidly to be a fantastic and fun<br />
place to meet other crafters and to communicate with new and existing<br />
customers!</p>
<p>Not only can you now build a detailed profile for your organisation, but<br />
also join and start user groups on any topic you wish! We also have<br />
forums, and the ability to upload and share as many photos as you want<br />
about your work, or perhaps just items that inspire you!</p>
<p>We also have free classifieds so you can buy and sell treasures! You<br />

<p>You can choose to make your groups public or private (by invitation<br />
only), so its a great fun way to communicate with customers too. Also as<br />
people sign up you can make new friends and invite them to your groups.</p>
<p>We have just launched and created a few groups such as scrapbooking,<br />
mosaics, quilting and so on and we are looking for people interested in<br />
being a moderator for them. We expect in time the user base to group<br />
rapidly (this is a facebook for craft!) so by getting in early perhaps<br />
you can cement yourself a good position as it grows!</p>
<p>It's really easy to use and if you don't have a website, its a very<br />
simple and easy way to put one together. All you need is some creative<br />
writing and lovely pictures! If you have a website, you can also easily<br />
link to it's features (your profile page, groups, classifieds, photos<br />
etc.) which will make your site interactive!!</p>
<p>Join up and send me a message with what you think! (or suggest)</p>
<p>The links again is <a href="http://craft.craftspider.com" title="http://craft.craftspider.com">http://craft.craftspider.com</a></p>
<p>Regards<br />
The Craft Spider!</p>
