→ Harvard study shows Facebook friends don’t influence your taste
A Harvard study just published in PNAS [1]:
[...] the overreaching conclusion was that on Facebook, people befriend others who are similar to them rather than becoming more similar to their friends over time.
In other words, tastes influence who you become friends with, but your friends have limited influence on your tastes.
