The idea of SNS is based on the concept of “Six degrees of separation” which introduced by Stanley Milgram, the social psychologist at Harvard University. Simply say that “if a person is one step away from each person they know and two steps away from each person who is known by one of the people they know, then everyone is at most six steps away from any other person on Earth.”[[http://www.cas.mcmaster.ca/wiki/index.php/Social_network_service#References]] | SNS (Social Network Service) is the application service that helps people builds online social communities where they share interests and/or activities.
