Chapter 2

In chapter 2 Gladwell talks about the three types of people who keep epidemics alive: Connectors, Mavens, and Salesmen. The most interesting thing about this chapter was the idea of "connectors" and how they keep things moving throughout our world. They serve as people who keep connections and relationships alive, especially the relationships that have not been connected for awhile. Gladwell uses the quote "It would be a mistake, however, to think Connectors are the only people who matter in a social epidemic" (page 59)
