SEA - Practical Application of Science, 2015, issue 8, 259-261 Abstract: The social networks like Facebook, Twitter are a real part of today society because we live in a social network era. These social networks facilitate individuals to communicate at minimum fees and to alert the public that wants to involve. The human being is a part of social networks that is formed by relations who can have various roles: having the information, confidence role or mobilization role in the case of conflicts. In the same time, the social relations are a source of influence. Following the contamination theory (Burt, 1995), people have the tendency to adopt the attitudes and the comportments of persons with whom they are in communication and the theory of diffusion (Rogers, 2003) presents the fact that the people to be in a relation are mutually influenced when is the time to innovate something. So, in order to have a more rapid diffusion of something, they have a leader.
