six... no, three!

I'm currently reading* this really cool book about the power of social networks. Dude, it's totally amazing. Apparently, our behavior is influenced by people we don't even know, through our networks. (Yes, even people with incredibly small social lives, like me, have a network.) Stuff like happiness, obesity, smoking, voting, etc. - contagious like crazy.

Interesting, eh? You should go see if your library system** has this book, and then you should read it! And tell your friends!



* Multnomah County Library system!!! You are THE BEST!!!! Have I told you lately how much I love you?
** Your library system totally sucks. MY library system is totally unstoppable!
