MySpace question
« on: March 12, 2007, 06:09:43 PM »
Is there any way on MySpace to see exactly how someone is in my extended network?  IIRC, on Friendster they'd show you the links (e.g., you're friends with Bob, who's friends with Sue, who's friends with the King of Prussia, who's friends with Kevin Bacon).  I poked around on MySpace to see if that's a feature on there, but couldn't find anything about it.  Is it possible?

I googled "What does extended network on myspace mean?" and got a hit to a blog.....basically what it said was that everyone is connected because when you first sign up, "Tom" is on your friends list, therefore, everyone is connected through him.

Makes sense to me....I had wondered about that, and when I view my own profile, it says that I am in my own extended network......

Hope that helps!

I'm not sure how it all works, but here's mine!

Yes, a friend did it for me, so my space is how she sees me..... I love it because it was done with love.

You know, I always wondered what the heck was up with that whole Extended Network thing. Now I know. :)

A good theory but since many people (myself included) remove Tom as our friend, and I still have thousands in my extended network, it probably isn't the case.  it probably is a friend of friend thing tho, probably to 3rd or 4th degree...
