Facebook Friends Mapping
(Idea from emmbean : joelaz : iamdanw and made possible by nexus)
This is a brilliant idea. For me, the top-left cluster is people I work with or have worked with and the bottom-left cluster is people I went to school with. The fuzzy cluster to the left of them are the people I hang out with.
The isolated cluster in the top right are people from a small internet community I used to be part of and way over on the right are university friends.
My favourite part is the single thread running along the middle of the map which is one of those strange coincidences, where someone I used to work with went to university with the younger brother of someone I went to university with. Different cities, three years apart, and my old work-colleague and I only met for the first time a few years after we’d both graduated. Small world.
