"They" are the board members of Fortune 100 companies, and you can
use this site to see the relationships between these companies.
Click on "Add Company" and select a favorite, then click on the
board table's "plus" sign and select "Expand" to see the names of
that company's board of directors. Next, click on a board member's
briefcase -- let's try Sam Nunn -- and select "Expand" again to
view other companies on whose board that person sits. (Nunn also
sits on the boards of General Electric, Texaco, and Dell Computers.)
You can also click on "Load Map" to see the connections that others
have suggested. Did you know that there are 72 guys named "John"
on the boards of Fortune 100 companies? Or how few steps there are
between Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard?
