==Modified models== Within the context of social networks, many, including Metcalfe himself, have proposed modified models in which the value of the network grows as <math>n \log n</math> rather than <math>n^2</math>.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://vcmike.wordpress.com/2006/08/18/metcalfe-social-networks/ |title=Guest Blogger Bob Metcalfe: Metcalfe's Law Recurses Down the Long Tail of Social Networks |date=18 August 2006 |access-date=2010-06-20}}</ref><ref name="Briscoe Odlyzko Tilly" /> Reed{{non sequitur inline|date=October 2023|reason=No "Reed" has been cited or mentioned anywhere in this article, other than as someone's first name.}} and [[Andrew Odlyzko]] have sought out possible relationships to Metcalfe's Law in terms of describing the relationship of a network and one can read about how those are related. Tongia and Wilson also examine the related question of the costs to those excluded.<ref>{{cite journal |url= http://ijoc.org/ojs/index.php/ijoc/article/view/873/549 |title=The Flip Side of Metcalfe's Law: Multiple and Growing Costs of Network Exclusion |first1=Rahul |last1=Tongia |first2=Ernest |last2=Wilson |journal=International Journal of Communication |date=September 2007 |volume=5 |page=17 |access-date=15 January 2013}}</ref>
