This map shows the connections I have through LinkedIn and is an interesting view of how I am personally or professionally connected to others within this digital community.<\/p>\n
Looking at this visualization and what it represents, it was interesting to see that each cluster of data seemed to fit around a different path that I had taken in my career. Journalism, marketing and education all make up different clusters with interesting connections among them.<\/p>\n
Friends and family who have connected with me on LinkedIn seem to meld within the different clusters and don\u2019t necessarily have a specific place within the connections. This seemingly random placement was interesting to see, including all the different industries I am connected to through that community.<\/p>\n
Even more interesting was the outliers who seem to float without a connection to any of my connections and live in the outskirts of the map.<\/p>\n
This map was made using Socilab.<\/p>\n
