About Sixdegrees


Sixdegrees was the first true social media platform which allowed users to upload a profile picture and to connect with users like we connect with people on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter etc. Sixdegree was created in May 1996. Sixdegrees was founded by Andrew Weinreich. There were around 3.5 Million users on Sixdegrees. Sixdegrees failed because it ran out of money and couldn't ensure a consistent connection between the users. Sixdegrees was famous until 2003. The domain registered was sixdegrees.com.
