A Small World? No, NOT the annoying song, the annoying "culturally influential."

A new 'networking' group, A Small World, from their own website:
"... private international community of culturally influential people who are connected by three degrees. " From their 'Membership Information' link : "Membership to ASMALLWORLD is by invitation only, which is part of what makes this network unique, and the connections authentic. Trusted and loyal ASW members who meet certain criteria have the privilege of inviting a limited number of their friends to the network (emphasis mine)."

Is it just me, or is this screaming sorority rush all over again? At what point in one's adult life does one self-determine to be "culturally influential?"

Although it does make me giggle picturing a single cyber-geek starting this group just for the buzz, then laughing his ass off in his mom's basement as all the self-important ones clamor to get in!
