    Cancelled friend request; can they see it?
    I accidentally sent a friend request to someone on facebook who i didn't want to add. I quickly cancelled the request, probably within about 2 minutes (i sent the request on my ipod but couldn't use it to cancel, so i had to run to my pc) Will the recipient have received notification of this before i cancelled, i.e. through a blackerry/iphone/other smartphone?

    Will they? I don't get requests through email, i thought most people turned that off cos it's annoying.
