  • Six Degrees: From Cultural Sensation To Action

    Chances are good that at some point youve participated in a round of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. A trivia game that swept through college campuses and has lived on to become a shorthand term for the small world phenomenon, its premise is that any actor can be linked through his or her film roles to actor Kevin Bacon in six steps or less. While Bacon himself did not invent the game, he came to the realization that it wasnt going away.

    Seeing an opportunity to help make a positive impact, he formed SixDegrees.org, a social networking site with a social conscience. Started with the nonprofit Network for Good, SixDegrees.org is about using this idea to accomplish something productive. It connects people with over one million worthy organizations, helping them support their favorite charities online. He believes that everyone, in their own way, can have a positive impact, and he shares his experiences with you.

    Bacon says, If you take me out of it, the actual idea that we are connected by six degrees of separation, that we all climbed out of the same swamp, is kind of a beautiful one. If we thought about that a little bit more, we would live in a different world.
