Main Abstract:
Recent years have witnessed the explosion of online social networks (OSNs). They provide powerful IT-innovations for online social activities such as organizing contacts, publishing contents, and sharing interests between friends who may never meet before. As more and more people become the active users of online social networks, one may ponder questions such as: (1) Do OSNs indeed improve our sociability? (2) To what extent can we expand our offline social spectrum in OSNs? (3) Can we identify some interesting user behaviors in OSNs? Our work in this paper just aims to answer these interesting questions. To this end, we pay a revisit to the well-known Dunbar's number in online social networks. Our main research contributions are as follows. First, to our best knowledge, our work is the first one that systematically validates the existence of the online Dunbar's number in the range of [200,300]. To reach this, we combine using local-structure analysis and user-interaction analysis for extensive real-world OSNs. Second, we divide OSNs users into two categories: rational and aggressive, and find that rational users intend to develop close and reciprocated relationships, whereas aggressive users have no consistent behaviors. Third, we build a simple model to capture the constraints of time and cognition that affect the evolution of online social networks. Finally, we show the potential use of our findings in viral marketing and privacy management in online social networks.

[1]: Abstract The effect of Internet use on social relationships is still a matter of intense debate. This study examined the relationships between use of social media (instant messaging and social network sites), network size, and emotional closeness in a sample of 117 individuals aged 18 to 63 years old. Time spent using social media was associated with a larger number of online social network “friends.” However, time spent using social media was not associated with larger offline networks, or feeling emotionally closer to offline network members. Further, those that used social media, as compared to non-users of social media, did not have larger offline networks, and were not emotionally closer to offline network members. These results highlight the importance of considering potential time and cognitive constraints on offline social networks when examining the impact of social media use on social relationships.

[2]: College students spend a significant amount of time using online social net- work services for messaging, sharing information, and keeping in touch with one another (e.g. [3, 10]). As these services represent a plentiful source of electronic data, they provide an opportunity to study dynamic patterns of social interactions quickly and exhaustively. In this paper, we study the social net- work service Facebook, which began in early 2004 in select universities, but grew quickly to encompass a very large number of universities. Studies have shown that, as of 2006, Facebook use is nearly ubiquitous among U. S. college students with over 90 active participation among undergraduates [5, 16].

[4]: Social networking services are a fast-growing business in the Internet. However, it is unknown if online relationships and their growth patterns are the same as in real-life social networks. In this paper, we compare the structures of three online social networking services: Cyworld, MySpace, and orkut, each with more than 10 million users, respectively. We have access to complete data of Cyworld's ilchon (friend) relationships and analyze its degree distribution, clustering property, degree correlation, and evolution over time. We also use Cyworld data to evaluate the validity of snowball sampling method, which we use to crawl and obtain partial network topologies of MySpace and orkut. Cyworld, the oldest of the three, demonstrates a changing scaling behavior over time in degree distribution. The latest Cyworld data's degree distribution exhibits a multi-scaling behavior, while those of MySpace and orkut have simple scaling behaviors with different exponents. Very interestingly, each of the two e ponents corresponds to the different segments in Cyworld's degree distribution. Certain online social networking services encourage online activities that cannot be easily copied in real life; we show that they deviate from close-knit online social networks which show a similar degree correlation pattern to real-life social networks.
By investigating the relationship between neocortex size and group size in primates, Dunbar [3] predicted the number of group size in human beings was 150, which was notable as Dunbar's number. According to him, human beings can only maintain a small fraction of relationships within the circle of Dunbar's number, and other relationships beyond that circle are not reciprocated or personalized. Dunbar's number targets on real-world social networks when first put forward. However, recent works in online social networks have displayed similar interesting observations [4] [2] . pointed out that time spent using social media, including online social sites, was not associated with larger offline networks [1] . Potential time and cognitive constraints were also considered in their work. Other work of online social networks related to Dunbar's number will be further discussed in Section .
