It’s long been touted that there’s only six degrees of seperation between yourself and anyone else in the world. You know someone who knows someone, who knows someone….six times and you end up with anyone else you choose, anywhere in the world.
More recently this became the Kevin Bacon theory; we’re all only six degrees of seperation away from Kevin Bacon. Wonderful.
But now there’s proof. MSN did a study of MSN instant messenger chats and showed that in fact we’re all only 6.6 degrees of seperation away. So the old adage/wive’s tail actually was pretty close to the mark.
Here’s the news story on the subject:
