The influence of our social networks

June 3, 2010 By Clare Leave a Comment

I must admit that when I hear the term ‘social network’ I immediately think of web-based tools and services – Facebook, MySpace, Twitter etc. But this TED talk explores the (surprising and somewhat hidden) power of more traditional social networks – the networks of family, friends and neighbours that we create and form part of. I found this talk interesting, surprising and inspiring…

I also enjoyed James Fowler’s PopTech 2009 talk on the same subject.
