Yes I’m certainly familiar with Ron Burt’s work – he’s one of the leading theorists in social networks.

Hyperchoice is the master dilemna, and there is a huge place for individuals or brands to help people to do the right choice. They need to be trusted.
I could only tell you to read Ronald Burt and his book “Brokerage and Closure: An Introduction to Social Capital”. It is one of my favourite books about networks. It goes deep into how social networks are a capital, and explaine very well the power of brokerage and its links with closure. Refreshing when everything goes to fast.
