data on Fakesters

Before i left for vacation, a wonderful woman sent me a set of survey data she collected on 61 identified Fakesters (mostly Pets). Having lost track of my email during that period, i forgot to post it. The survey isn’t that serious so it’s mighty fun to read and there are some humorous quotes.

    Does anyone know if the Friendster Network is non-scaler and follows a power law? I can’t find anyone who has suggested it, but it makes sense, given the way that people join.
