    I'm developing a tool to do network analysis, This is what I come up until now for my Twitter network...

    twitter.com/sixhat

    It's a little bit messy there in the midle... Yes.. Twitter is messy.

      Any chance it could be turned into a website where you could input your twitter username and see how your friends are connected and/or your immediate "surroundings" in the social graph?

      I really like your pic, as a great image of 'networks' - would you give me permission to use it in a powerpoint
      slideshow I am giving on the theme of 'networked inquiry'? I would indicate the source of course (ie. that it came from flickr, and your flickr name). I'd also like to include it in a wiki site for a conference on that theme (it's for educational not commerical purposes!)

      I found your network analysis picture in this page (thanks to Pierre Levy - Twitter @plevy - for sending this):

      Could you please give more information:

      - Which language you used to produce this graph?
      - Is is possible to share the code, so we can improve/change it?

      Thank you!

      Hi,

      this was done using the JUNG JAva package:

      jung.sourceforge.net/

      Basically using the Twitter API you generate a Ego-Network of level N. You export the ego network and load it into jung that has the methods to visualize this.

      I'll try to find the code I used for this... but can't promise much.

      I used your photo with appropriate credit given on my blog. You can find the post here:www.thestartupstudent.com/post/1307665235/rea ch-their-net...

      Let me know if you'd like me to take your photo down for whatever reason.

      Thanks!
