Celebrity and Deism on Social Networks

Definition

Admist a number of playwrights, Shakespeare became the most well known for what he did. These groups of talent, the best-known members are the most extreme. Online, Robert Scoble is the most extreme because he takes in the most channels and feeds of almost anyone else on the social web. He is defined by his extreme ability to manage so many different kinds of communication channels at once. One of the more famous videos of him shows him processing 10,000 E-mails in 5 minutes. This ability to compress the normal amount of time d space it takes to go through E-mail or social requests is what defines him on a network that thrives on productivity and getting things done. The rate of getting things done in an information society is self-defined and directly correlated with one’s ability to thrive. Those with the most nodes of connectivity thrive and have less space and less time between starting and ending a project. They know the most experts and can connect them. Their connectivity influences their ability to thrive.

The idea of epicness is also related to the idea of the epicenter, or center of gravity. In the case of a planet, gravity reduces as one goes further. Online, power reduces the further one gets away from the central node in a network. Those closest to a node have more power. The distance, in steps, from those social nodes with the most gravity is subject to connectivity. The most connected are closest to the central node.
