No long-winded introductions here. I got some data, played with it a bit, and now I have some pretty pictures. You can check the related topic for more info.
[url=https://googledrive.com/host/0BzCiGftwimcfbmxkZ2ZjS1BhSVk/]Here is the interactive version of the graph[/url]. [b]It is very large and will run very slowly (probably not at all on a mobile device).[/b]
Details:
- There are 9,228 nodes/users in the graph
- There are 14,966 edges/follows
- Click below for confusing math details[spoiler]*keep in mind that I only looked at the users in the previous topic and got a list of their followers who were also in the graph; I didn't look at the followers of the followers
- Average degree: 1.622
- Network diameter: 11
- Average path length: 4.474[/spoiler]
- The graph is organised in a few ways:
1) sub-communities (modularity class), which is indicated by the colours. Groups of users with the same colour were identified as belonging to an individual sub-community.
2) how central to the network of users an individual user is according to [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvector_centrality]Eigenvector centrality[/url] ([url=http://www.activatenetworks.net/who-is-central-to-a-social-network-it-depends-on-your-centrality-measure/]read here for layman's terms[/url]) which is indicated by how large a node (a user) is. The larger, the more central to the network.
3) The edges (the lines you can see) which connect a user to another user is done according to who follows who.
Now for some more interesting stats:
