Hi,

There’s also Netvizz which generates GDF files for GUESS and Gephi: http://apps.facebook.com/netvizz/
(http://thepoliticsofsystems.net/2010/03/22/netvizz-facebook-to-gephi/)

See a tutorial here: http://blog.sociomantic.com/2010/05/using-netvizz-gephi-to-analyze-a-facebook-network/

cheers

Hi – thanks for forwarding this.

Sadly, these days I’m not developing the application any further, except on my desktop. However, on that application, I’ve been able to spruce up this work a little bit – here’s an example (my network). Its all automated, feel free to look me up for more info.

Thanks for this posting. I haven’t seen too many people using social network analysis visualization in conjunction with online social networks. I’d love to see more in-depth quantitative methods applied to these types of analyses for things like usability and UI design. Too often, web usability guidelines address a generic user, not accounting for the real social specificity of individuals’ social networks. Thanks!

Interesting. I am using a private Ning social network to support a course on International Accounting. Do you know if this system or another are suitable for this platform?

If any idea, please mail me.
