The advent of the social networks has completely changed our daily life. The deluge of data collected on Social Network Services (SNS) and recent developments in complex network theory have enabled many marvelous predictive analysis, which tells us many amazing stories. Why do we often feel that "the world is so small?" Is the six-degree separation purely imagination or based on mathematical insights? Why are there just a few rockstars who enjoy extreme popularity while most of us stay unknown to the world? When science meets coffee shop knowledge, things are bound to be intriguing. I will first briefly describe what social networks are, in the mathematical sense. Then I will introduce some ways to extract characteristics of networks, and how these analyses can explain many anecdotes in our life. Finally, I'll show an example of what we can learn from social network analysis, based on data from Groupon. ]]>
