Touchgraph – Data Visualization

by Mark on September 20, 2007

I have been playing around with a data visualization tool called TouchGraph. The TouchGraph Google Browser reveals the network of connectivity between websites, as reported by Google’s database of related sites.Here’s a visualization between EncoreOpus and others via Google.

This is an interesting view of how your website has relationships withothers through Google search. I am still trying to figure out how thisi useful other than it draws really pretty pictures. I am currentlyreading Linkedand am fascinated by graph theory, networks and all that entails.Perhaps this chart is useful but I am still figuring out how. MaybeI’ll figure it out when I make it the last chapter.
