Trying to explain ThisIsLike to a friend ends up sounding like a junior high locker conversation: "He photographed a model, who is also a performing artist, who was in this band, and one of her bandmates was this other girl, who now writes for this website, which is actually similar to this other site, which was founded by this guy."

That's one way to explain the degrees of separation between two people. Another way would be to click through the photos, videos, links, and descriptions on ThisIsLike.com or watch our screencast of that process.
