Social Network Analysis is employed widely as a means to compute the probability that a given message flows through a social network. This approach is mainly grounded upon the correct usage of three basic graph-theoretic measures: degree centrality, closeness centrality and betweeness centrality. We show that, in general, those indices are not adapt to foresee the flow of a given message, that depends upon indices based on the sharing of interests and the trust about depth in knowledge of a topic. We provide an extended model, that is a simplified version of a more general model already documented in the literature, the ...
