Mapping the Social Graph

by | Jun 1, 2010

I missed Robert Kieffer’s post back in March on this. And, I find it so interesting that I thought it’d be worth sharing again…

Among other things, FanPageAnalaytics.com maps the connections of some 200 million Facebook user profiles and illustrates the “thickness” of those networks between various cities. For example, here is a map of Bend’s social network demonstrating the wide connections ranging from Los Angeles to Seattle.

You can also find other interesting connections for groups, famous people, etc. Who knew that Vermont has the highest per capita number of Jerry Garcia fans in the country?
