Have the Six Degrees Of Separation shrunk to 3 due to Social Software? According to [Jeff Rodrigues], a social networking specialist that carried out the study, 97 percent of the participants said they felt more connected to people today than they ever have in the past and for older respondents, EMail and MobIle phones were the key factors in reducing the degrees of separation. But for those in the younger generation, Face Book was the main factor. Text Messaging was also mentioned as an important component in reducing degrees of separation... It should be noted that the research is not the epitome of a real scientific study - O2 paid for it, after all.
