Last year at this time, I started Grad School with a class called Social Networks and the Web.
The main assignment for class, was rendering a map of my Facebook friends via a program called Gephi.
I worked on it for several weeks and when I finally got it to the point that I liked it, I decided it was worthy of a post.
When you look at this graph, the first thing you see is how very large the yellow area is.
Those are all my Steely Dan friends, on the lower left side. Since I was drawn into the Facebook world by 2 Steely Dan friends, this is not really a surprise to me.
The other large groups are as follows.
The Unit fans are over on the lower right side. The top, is college friends on the far left, high school friends on the mid left and family sort of center. Oh, the final group on the top right is is my son's friends...including my "Other" sons. :-)
I thought it came out particularly beautiful. Sort of like a Spirograph.
This semester is my final one. After it is over, I will have earned a Graduate Certificate in Integrated Media and Social Networks. I can't believe how fast it is going.
4 months to go.
