A study in the United States revives the theory of six degrees, under which only six people separate each of us of any individual in the world, although the number seven degrees is more correct. Researchers at Microsoft have studied the addresses of people who have sent 30 billion instant messages using MSN, for 30 days. According to theory, two people from anywhere are connected, on average, with up to seven people known. The theory of six degrees was created in 1960 by the American psychologist, Stanley Milgram, after a series of experiments known as Small World, or small world, where a person should spend a letter to someone known.
