Lovely Facebook data visualisation
Just found this via Seb Chan at Fresh + New(er). Nexus is a little app that takes all your Facebook connections and their connections with each other, and creates a visualisation of this.
Here are my constellations.
That large galaxy, as you would expect, are people I know through work, then there are a couple of other much smaller galaxies of “friends from life”. But I especially love those solitary little souls out there, connected to me only, or those at the outer edges of my universe.
It’s a really nice visualisation of which people in your network are connected to others in your network – the best I have seen in fact.
Great reading, every weekend.
