They say that everyone on the earth is connected to everyone else
through a path of six people or less. This concept, explains award
winning playwright John Guare, is "not philosophical or poetic. It's a
statistical theory, based on the wireless [telegraph] of the inventor,
Marconi. [Marconi] surmised that by the time the country would be
connected by the wireless, we'd be able to find anybody on the planet by
connecting through 5.83 people."*
That means there's a whole world of contacts out there that you never
realized you had. The sixdegrees Web site takes what was just a concept
and makes it a reality through the power of the Internet. Our free
networking services let you find the people you want to know through the
people you already know.
