Is it known, or widely believed, that the cortex is a scale-free network? I.E. Do a large percentage of neurons have a small number of connections to other neurons, and do a small percentage of neurons have a large number of connections to other neurons?

How about a social network whose vertices are user-generated data objects (e.g. math article, jpeg image) and whose connections are based on request and confirmation between users? I.e. the user who owns vertex A can request a connection between vertex A and vertex B; the connection is...
