I just logged into Friendster again and through Matt Stoner, I now have close to 5000 people in that social network, though i know few of them. Matt of course thus would have all of those minus one, because I was somewhat uninterested in Friendster until i saw this new number. So thus I'm wondering if any other members of AoIR have played with Friendster and what have they found? Specifically, I'm wondering if this probably fits the old sixdegrees.com cloud system, and whether the core and periphery of those clouds are well defined, as they were at sixdegrees.com jeremy hunsinger jhuns@vt.edu on the ibook www.cddc.vt.edu www.cddc.vt.edu/jeremy www.cddc.vt.edu/jeremy/blog () ascii ribbon campaign - against html mail /\ - against microsoft attachments Jeremy Hunsinger Center for Digital Discourse and Culture () ascii ribbon campaign - against html mail /\ - against microsoft attachments
