[ddj] Designing an interactive social graph

[Catherine D'Ignazio]

D3 is a good and relatively quick option if you know javascript:
https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Force-Layout

Gephi is the best software for network analysis and has an exportable
option - http://gephi.github.io/

I know there are others out there but these two come to mind.

Cheers,
Catherine
