The theory that everyone on the planet is connected by no more than six acquaintances has been around for over 50 years. However, to date there has not been a way for people to build and harness their own Six Degrees of Separation.
What is Glacir?
Glacir is an internet service that automatically builds and uses a persons Six Degrees of Separation to show them how they are connected to content and people on the internet.
Glacir is currently in beta release. More features will be brought online in the coming weeks and months to enhance the Glacir experience. Please let us know if you have comments or suggestions on how we can improve our service by posting on our feedback forum.
Why is it Called Glacir?
Glacir is a global human network that is comprised of individuals connected together just as a Glacier is a huge mass of snow created by billions of individual snowflakes. This accumulation of individuals forms a collective power that can not be matched anywhere else in nature. By connecting humanity, Glacir will change the shape of the planet.
