Friday, September 23, 2005 Albert-László Barabási, visiting scientist, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute This just in from a SOCNET posting: Mathematician follows networks.. Barabási wrote Linked: How Everything is Connected to Everything Else, one of key books on my SNA/ONA reading list. What's marvelous about his thinking is that he sees the the isomorphic patterns of networks in natural systems (starting at the molecular level), in man-made systems (computer networks and grids), and human systems -- our social networks.

Thanks (as ever) to Bruce Hoppe for pointing me to Centrality, a group blog with both social network analysis and social software luminaries posting on a regular basis. The former group is led by Stan Wasserman, and the latter by Stowe Boyd. The site is supported by Visible Path, and contains both industry news (about social networking sites, services, and the like), but also some fine distinctions in social networking language.
