Connectors

I am reading a very interesting book titled "The Tipping Point" by Malcolm Gladwell. I just started reading and what I find fascinating is that we are all brought together by people who are connectors and these connectors seem to have a special way about them where they can become the tipping point of relationships, economics and trends.

This book is so interesting and also brings up the fact that Paul Revere was a connector thus the reason he was able to reach so many colonist telling them that the British were coming. The fact that there was another messenger named William Dawes, who was tasked with alerting another part of Boston was never recognized in history since his efforts were unsuccessful.

Why? You ask. Two people given the same task to share the same critical information and one succeeds and the other fails...Paul was the connector.

To be continued.
