Wikipedia: "Weak tie is a term suggested by Mark Granovetter in 'The strength of weak ties' (American Journal of Sociology, Vol. 78, No. 6., May 1973) as the ties in a social network that are not strong. Strong ties are those such as kin relations and close personal friends, while weak ties are loose acquaintances such as those connections made at a party."
Valids Krebs [via Twitter]: "That is NOT correct definition of weak tie -- college roommate who you rarely talk to is a weak tie -- there is trust in tie!"
