Data set: nodexlgraphgallery.org/Pages/EditGraph.aspx?graphID=441

 

These are the connections among the Twitter users who recently tweeted the word strataconf when queried on February 28, 2012, scaled by numbers of followers (with outliers thresholded). Connections created when users reply, mention or follow one another. The data set starts on 2/20/2012 14:50 and ends on 2/28/2012 0:17 UTC. Green lines are "follows" relationships, blue lines are "reply" or "mentions" relationships.

 

Layout created with the "Group Layout" feature of NodeXL which tiles bounded regions for each cluster. The Harel-Koren layout algorithm positioned each vertex: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force-based_algorithms_(graph_drawing).

 

Clusters calculated by the Clauset-Newman-Moore algorithm are also encoded by color. Clauset-Newman-Moore algorithm is defined here: pre.aps.org/abstract/PRE/v70/i6/e066111
