A woman who found a digital camera outside Ohio Stadium located the owner by uploading a picture from it and e-mailing the image to a batch of Ohio State football fans.
一名在俄亥俄州大體育場外發現一台數位相機的女子，將一張取自該相機的照片上傳到網路，並發電郵將照片傳給一群俄州大美式足球粉絲後，成功的找到了相機主人。
Within 48 hours of sending the e-mail to 14 friends, Michelle Montgomery declared her social experiment a success. She was contacted by Kevin John, 45, who learned through a chain of e-mailers in the Buckeye network （fans of Ohio State） that Montgomery had his camera.
在向14名友人寄發電郵後48小時內，蜜雪兒．蒙哥馬利的社交實驗宣告成功。45歲的相機失主凱文．約翰與她聯繫，約翰透過俄州大粉絲的「七葉樹網絡」寄發的電郵連鎖信，得悉蒙哥馬利拾獲他的相機。
"It shows the power of the Internet, e-mail and the Buckeye network. It's amazing how many Buckeye fans are out there," said John, a 1986 Ohio State University graduate.
「這顯示網際網路、電子郵件與『七葉樹網絡』的力量。真沒想到有有這麼多俄州大粉絲，」1986年自俄州大畢業的約翰說。
John lost the camera outside the stadium at the Sept. 1 Ohio State-Youngstown State football game after asking a cheerleader to take pictures of him and his 10-year-old son Noah posing with Brutus Buckeye, the team mascot.
約翰在9月1日俄州大對上楊斯頓州大的美式足球比賽當天，於俄州大體育場外要求一名啦啦隊員幫他與10歲兒子諾亞跟俄州大球隊吉祥物布魯特斯．巴蓋（七葉樹）合照後，弄丟了相機。
