Ask HN: would you like to participate in my experiment?

3 pointsxabi5 comments

I would like to make an experiment using twitter. It's something like Six degrees of separation.

It's as simple as tweet this sentence as is (without quotes):

"Please retweet this with the counter increased by one. REEXP0001 (see http://bit.ly/2qHHs0 for reason)"

In everything goes ok, I'll publish the results.

Thanks in advance!

I'd be more interested if there was a (non-HN) link I could add to my tweet to explain what the heck I was tweeting about.

Why non-HN link? I'll try this, but link to this page to explain.

updated with a a link to this HN entry.

Non-HN because I don't want to insinuate that people who read it should vote this up.

interesting, I haven't used twitter in months, but this is reason enough to log in :)

Message sent, curious how many hops it will take to get back to you (if at all).
