Internet is making the world smallHave you noticed with the Internet how small our world has become?  I was recently on Facebook searching to see if a particular friend had a Facebook account.  Her last name is Christian and I noticed that on the first page I pulled up I had at least one mutual friend with EVERY person on the page.  Out of the 10 names that pulled up I had one mutual friend with four of the facebook profiles that pulled up, two mutual friends with three, three mutual friends with two and with one we had 8 mutual friends.  These people were located from New York to LA and I did not know any of them.  How wild is that.  I have 326 Facebook friends with probably ¾ of them coming from my Active Rain friends and the others from personal friends and family.  I guess if I had thousands of Facebook Friends I could see this happening but this REALLY surprised me since I don’t have thousands of Facebook Friends.

I just heard about the 6 degrees of separation written by John Guare.   Another name for Six degrees of separation is the “Human Web”.  “This refers to the idea that, if a person is one step away from each person they know and two steps away from each person who is known by one of the people they know, then everyone is at most six steps away from any other person on Earth.”

I recently took our son to have Lasik surgery done about an hour from our house.  While sitting in the waiting room I met a retired school teacher who was one of the computer teachers at my son’s High School during the time he attended and another gal who was friends with the owner of a stable where we use to keep my daughter’s horse and she was in a small group with a friend of mine in my subdivision that I have started doing a small group with.  She even knew about some Easter baskets we had made for foster children.  At that time we talked about six degrees of separation.  I have to wonder if maybe it is even less than 6 degrees.
