"It's a small world" is such a casual saying, but ever thought what it
actually means? The theory of "six degrees of separation" claims that
any one of us can be linked to any one else on earth by a chain of six
contacts on average. I am hoping that you could help me with a small
experiment in this area, toward my university final project in web
media design, the small-world-network ,
http://www.small-world-network.com by reporting about this project.
It's short, confidential, won't lead to spam (promise!), and will help
further research in a field championed by Stanley Milgram and, more
recently, Duncan Watts and team http://smallworld.columbia.edu/ at
Columbia University.
I would appreciate if you find interest in this topic and if you would
participate. For further information please see my website
www.small-world-network.com and feel free to contact me for further
enquiries.
I hope you'll find it interesting and you will consider to help the
project along. Thank you very much!
