These are the connections among the Twitter users who recently tweeted the word socialbiz when queried on December 14, 2011, scaled by numbers of followers (with outliers thresholded). Connections created when users reply, mention or follow one another. The data set starts on 12/7/2011 3:01 and ends on 12/14/2011 19:00 UTC.

 

Layout created with the "Group Layout" feature of NodeXL which tiles bounded regions for each cluster. Clusters calculated by the Clauset-Newman-Moore algorithm are also encoded by color.
