Marlow's Explorer

Email This Entry

Posted by Ross Mayfield

Got a peek at Cameron Marlow's SocialNetworkExplorer at Foo during his talk with Dave Sifry. He is developing a directional graph of blogs, with a clean way of explaining the context of a given blog. For each blog it lists Friends (people who link to the blog and the blog links back) and Fans (people who link to the blog) and Favorites (people the blog links to). The choice of the word Fan is actually quite appropriate for popular blogs, who may have thousands of followers, but max-out at 150 friends -- as they are only human.
