As a result of this work, terms like “six degrees” and “strong/weak ties” and “networked communities” have become mainstream. With an understanding of how people are connected we can also gain insight into how information flows through a network.

Valdis Krebs addresses this in Overlapping Networks: It is usually beneficial to be connected to those who have a good view of what is going on. Basically, our position in a network, and the overlap with other networks, influences the type of information and people that we can access. 2. 3. Multi Platform Social Media – diagram-by-diagram.

The above is one of my favourite diagrams from way back in early 2006. Facebook Nutzerzahlen. Ning – Erstellen Sie ein soziale Netzwerk-Website mit Ning, der besten Plattform für Social Websites.

How to Avoid Trolls, Landmines, and Time-Sucks in Social Media. Sagt Social Networks adieu, begrüßt Private Networks! Blogger Richard Gutjahr glaubt, eine Art “Facebook Fatigue” ausgemacht zu haben. Er hat einige Leute aufgespürt, die dem Netzwerk den Rücken gekehrt haben und fragt: Gibt es ein Leben nach Facebook?
