•A contact network is built up consisting of their direct connections, the connections of each of their connections and also the connections of second degree connections. This can be used to gain an introduction to someone you wish to know through a mutual, trusted contact.

•It can then be used to find jobs, people and business opportunities recommended by someone in one's contact network.
