This is a play off of the "six degrees of separation theory" in which people believe we are all connected with in six hops to everyone else in the world. This video explains it a little bit better.
It is long, but if you jump around a bit you get the idea. So do you believe the theory is true throughout the world? Are you connected in some way to every person in Denmark, Russia, and Ethiopia? Share your thoughts on the theory.
I really enjoyed this post. This game, and this theory, is something that I am familiar with, but not didn't know that much about. I like that Kevin Bacon knows and embraces the game and has used it to explain that it is beautiful that we are all connected. If something happens to someone around the world, it will still affect us. That being said, i do believe the theory is true. I think that there is definitely a way to connect with someone by 6 degrees of separation.
