Those six degrees of separation are really a lot less than six when it comes to communicating with people who are, say, on the same forum as you are, live in the same street, or to people you actually know.
But even when they aren't people you know, six is not so many. From now on, I'm going to just rely on the few degrees of separation for all my communication needs. Booking doctors appointments, airline tickets, ordering pizza, everything.
I've been dealing with the support desk of a net based business trying to find some information, and I think my new method might be substantially more effective than my current approach of filling out thousands of web forms.
It would certainly be more comfortable.
Because there's only a few degrees of separation between me and whoever it is a want to inform, from now on, I'll just chat about it casually to someone I meet in the street, and hope the query or order finds itself on the correct desk on the other side of the globe.
As a method of getting a help desk to respond, I cant see it being any worse than my recently tried methods.
I feel better already.
