"Join Twitter now for free!  [...] This message was sent by a Twitter user who entered your email address."

Yeah, right.  Who the *%&$%@#@!(&( is Emma? I don't know anyone named Emma.  To the best of my knowledge, nobody named Emma has my email address that didn't harvest it off a mailing list somewhere or other or out of somebody's address book.  And whoever this fictional Emma is, "she" entered the same email address twice.

So now Twitter have become spammers...  great business model, guys.  Let me know how that works out for you.

someone could have just done a "send to all" option in the place where you are given the option of asking people in your address book to join. lots of sites provide that.
and it could be someone in the bowels of a work email or some yahoo list....
