MIT Tech Review: Untapped Networks
MIT Tech Review: Untapped Networks"People have a local view of the world. I have my friends, and everyone else is “out there” somewhere—I don’t know about them or care about them and certainly can’t affect them. The science of networks is the antithesis of that world view. You affect things out there and they affect you. Sometimes that’s good because you can draw on resources that you didn’t know about yesterday, and sometimes it’s bad because you get affected by a disease or your computer crashes from a virus, and the only thing that you did wrong was buy Microsoft. So, the world is both small and big."
