Just saw this on twitter. Linkedin can create a nice visualisation of your network. (http://inmaps.linkedinlabs.com). My visualisation turned out pretty OK:
It correctly identifies four main groups.
Former student club.
A big bunch of python/django/plone.
Construction informatics research (“my PhD subject”).
My current company.
Regarding my (former) workplaces and their connection to my python/django/plone cluster (the blue one on the right), it is nice to see a difference:
PhD colleagues? My water management colleages at my current job? No connections. I’ll have to get my IT colleagues to increase their python network, though :-)
The Health Agency? The small brownish purple that sits right next to the python cluster. Two colleagues were very active there.
Zest software? Indistinguishable from the python cluster. Fully integrated. Yep, most of us were very active in python/plone. Funny to see it visualised this way.
My name is Reinout van Rees and I work a lot with Python (programming language) and Django (website framework). I live in The Netherlands and I'm happily married to Annie van Rees-Kooiman.
