I made the mistake of inviting some friends to linkedin.

The result is that linkedin will now re-send e-mails a few more times to remind them that they didn't register yet.

Is there a way to make it not do that after the first time the invitation was sent?

Have you tried the following?

  1. Choose Sent from the Inbox menu in the top navigation bar.
  2. Choose the Sent Invitations tab
  3. Open any of the pending "Invitation to connect on LinkedIn" messages you've sent to your friends.
  4. Click Withdraw (the button below the invitation, next to "Resend")

I'm not sure about it, but the "withdraw" option does seem promising. You can also "delete" sent invitations, but to me "withdraw" sounds more likely to do what you're after.

Is it possible to "mass withdraw" ? – Tal Galili Sep 27 '10 at 18:17
@Tal, I didn't spot such an option (unless "delete" does the same as "withdraw"; mass delete is possible). But wait, I found this entry about invitation reminders at LinkedIn FAQ. It says: "[...] customer service can withdraw all pending Invitations on your behalf" and instructs how to request that. – Jonik Sep 27 '10 at 19:20
