A Brief Summary of the First Link of "Linked" by Albert-Laszlo Barabasi

Albert-Laszlo Barabasi wrote "Linked" which claims "How Everything Is Connected to Everything Else and What It Means for Business, Science, and Everyday Life".
In the first link, Barabasi introduces with two contrary people. The one was named the MafiaBoy who is a fifteen years old boy and attacked Yahoo's computer system in 2000. The other was named Paul who spreaded the Christianity around the World by using theology and social networks effectively two thousand years ago from the MafiaBoy. These two men were certainly "masters of the network", but so different at the point of using their skills. MafiaBoy destroyed the network of computers and Paul utilized the social and religious links of that time. The reason why they were successful is that people live in an interrelateded world.
