Imagine a very popular person in the social network, like a party host who has hundreds of friends, and a misanthrope who has just one friend, and you pick someone at random from the population; they were much more likely to know the party host.
Imaginen una persona muy popular en la red social -como un anfitrión de una fiesta con cientos de amigos- y un misántropo que tiene un solo amigo; si uno toma una persona al azar, es mucho más probable que conozca al anfitrión.
