happy small worlds
When exploring a topic that is new to me I usually use the internet. I noticed how nice it is to read a name (at least) twice in different places of the overwhelming number of interesting sites. Like a known face in a strange place. And you know this person is probably important for this topic.
Inside a new, interlinked medium like the blogosphere this can easily happen. New means it is still small. Interlinked means you mainly move inside the same medium.
(Hm, this is linked to some thoughts about complexity that are not on this weblog yet. Will come.)
