Christakis and James H. Fowler in 2007.  Christakis and Fowler found that social networks have great influence on individuals' behavior.  But social influence does not end with the people to whom a person is directly tied.  We influence our friends, who in their turn influence their friends, and so our actions can influence people we have never met, to whom we are only indirectly tied.  They posit that diverse phenomena "ripple through our network, having an impact on our friends (one degree), our friends’ friends (two degrees), and even our friends’ friends’ friends (three degrees).  Our influence gradually dissipates and ceases to have a noticeable effect on people beyond the social frontier that lies at three degrees of separation".
