Abstract
Online communications not only provide instantaneous and inexpensive mean for socialization, but also present an opportunity to understand human relationship. In this paper, we investigated correlation between human social relationship and online communications and modelled personal and business affinity as a linear combination of online interactions. We discovered that personal and business affinities have different dominant predictive variables. The discovered variables not only had a strong linear relationship to their affinity, but also were statistically significant.
