So this is actually an interesting post so pay attention. (not that the others weren't). Most people know the game 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon. Well, I found a site which is dedicated to that game. It is http://oracleofbacon.org/. Just type in the actors name and it will connect them to Kevin Bacon. Pretty cool. Kevin Bacon can be linked to Shirley Temple, Clark Gable, and James Dean in 2 steps.
It gets more interesting. You can also see who is the best center, meaning who is the most connected actor here. It is Rod Steiger, but the list includes the top 1000. Kevin Bacon is 1049 and not even on the list.
So check it out and enjoy.

Pretty cool and mathematical -- I like it.
Interesting that there are so many more actors than actresses in the Top 50 list. Why do you think that is?
Who knew that Rip Torn could be in the Top 100?
