Although I did think it was a lot of reading in Chapter 2, I did enjoy reading about Connectors, Mavens, & Salesmen. If I had to associate myself with a Connector, Maven or Salesmen, I would say I am a Connector. When I go out with my friends they usually make bets of how many people I'll see when we go out. One time I was at an Antic Car Show with my boyfriend in a small town in Philadelphia. As we were eating dinner I spotted my neighbor from down the street who happened to be with her boyfriend. For being where I was at the time I wasn't expecting to see anyone I knew. Small world.
Being a business major I always have teachers tell me one big thing that always sticks in my head. ITS ABOUT YOUR CONNECTIONS. And in the book, Gladwell writes about Connectors knowing so many people. You never know who knows someone that knows someone else with connections that can help change your life just by saying a name. (e.g. jobs)
