Ihe influence of strong ties and demographic and perceptual homophily are discussed in their role in encouraging people to view websites, forward e-mail messages, and try out new products. To complement these source characteristics, the presence of motivations to act such as offering discounts, providing entertainment value, and having a link to online communities was also explored.
