Connecting Celebrities
Hollywood/Music types have had their own websites for a while now and some have gone beyond just the standard site and have used other "parts" of the net for themselves and their brand - namely MySpace.com. My Space was invented to create an online community that allows you to meet your friends' friends. Also it let's you see who knows who, or how you are connected or in this case, see how celebrities are connected. Zach Braff, star of the TV show Scrubs and has appeared in the movies Garden State and Chicken Little [voice] and will appear in the soon to be released The Last Kiss, has his own website which is much like a blog but he also has a site on My Space. He currently has nearly 2,500 "friends" there and in this list are the following people who also have a My Space space:- Fiona Apple [singer]
- The 88 [band that appears on HIMYM]
- Joshua Radin [singer]
- Remy Zero [band]
Zach is a music guy so it is not surprising that his connections are to the music community rather than the Hollywooders. Or maybe the music industry has been quicker to embrace the idea of community faster than actors/movies/tv shows.
In the future, maybe we will be able to truly measure if all people are "six degrees" from Kevin Bacon but for now it seems that we are all still just loosely connected.
