The Internet OR Kevin Bacon Emulation
Apparently, we're all just 6 emails away from each other:
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tm...s_of_separation Thank goodness Columbia University is on the case, finding this stuff out for us! lol The article mentions 'clicks', but seems really to be talking about either emails or IM... not really clear. Amusing nonetheless.

I think this is kind of redundant. iirc, there was a rigorous mathematical proof that everyone in the world is related within 7 degrees of separation published in "Scientific American" maybe last year.
Also, they seem to do an awful lot of guessing and estimating, since most of the message chains didn't make it. Either way, its still interesting.
