RISMEDIA, February 17, 2011—(MCT)—It’s difficult for people to visualize all their connections with friends, family, classmates and colleagues—a Web of linkages that can reveal much about themselves and the people in their lives. Now social networks are making that easier to do.
New apps on LinkedIn and Facebook allow you, in a glance, to see the patterns of connections between you and everyone you have a tie to in that network who has agreed to create a mutual connection. Users will see a rich lattice of personal connections that, digitally illustrated, can resemble star clusters, multi-cell organisms or the airline route schedules in the back of in-flight magazines.
