6 Degrees Experiment

I noticed a very busy group on Facebook:

“You are invited to take part in the most ambitious facebook experiment ever…
Using the Six Degrees of Separation theory, I want to see if it’s possible to contact every single person on facebook. The theory states that everybody on this planet is separated by only six other people. (it could be argued that we’re all only six degrees from the late Heath Ledger). “

The results are posted at http://www.steve-jackson.net/six_degrees/index.html
