Visualizing Friendship Dynamics

Email This Entry

Posted by Seb Paquet

Thomas Thurman has developed Joule, a nice application that tracks "friend-of" relationships over time on LiveJournal and displays a user's friendships over time in either tabular or graph format. Note that LiveJournal features an integrated aggregator; friendship there is roughly equivalent to subscription in the weblog world. JouleScreenshot.png Update, Jan 27: also found LiveJournal Connect, a service that will find a path between you and another user.

Irony.

Live journal has a lot of cliquish middle-school high-school stuff going down. Such a score chart, nice? I doubt it.

Of course that's not what you meant. I agree. It is indeed a pretty hack.
