The "Light Network" is "the chain of anti-relationship"

When social costs are low to a certain extent, can create a burden, such as the micro-letter Address Book is an expansion of the chain of relationships, this is not in line with social natural mode, if the Snapchat simulation is a face-to-face communication between friends, then the meeting, strangers and the people who have gone their separate ways should have no ties.

At this stage, the chain of social relations may need not precipitate, but reverse precipitate. No one needs another micro-letter, QQ or MO, can make friends after all is a minority. Some new dating applications show this trend, such as today to see a product called SOBRR, the biggest bright spot is 24 hours after all the relationship will be automatically released, and is the lbs+tinder mechanism, only users in the same site can see the published pictures, users can be in the bar, Music festival site in accordance with the content of users posted add friends. If you feel particularly congenial, users can actively retain their friends relationship.

In addition to these, another wave of new random dating applications is also very restrained in the relationship chain precipitation, such as Ji Ji, several degrees, two corners, and so on, the new version of several degrees may allow the user always only have permission to retain two past contacts, others are passing by; Ji Ji also deliberately weaken the address book color, using like Mechanism, the dynamic of the user who is like is preferred to appear in the user information flow.

Before my colleague Leon mentioned a "Light Network" (ephemeralnet) concept, foreign have a noun "ephemeralnet", ephemeral is short meaning. It means that more and more people are unwilling to put their information on the Web for permanent preservation, but hope that the information exists only for a period of time. In fact, "dismantling the chain of relationships" is also a manifestation of light networking.

In any case, the light networking makes people communicate and communicate more without burden, "Burn after reading", "Anonymous", based on the scene, and yo like 0 cost input and so on, regardless of how the game is changed, but the goal is to make users more relaxed.
