You may not know the full potential of your social network, but have you thought that it is possibel to mine your twitter, fb, linkedin and g+ network in a much more systematic way?

By mining twitter, you may be able to know much more about what is happening now than automated software. I have sett up a separate subcategory about this on my BB http://www.oopschool.com/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=55&sid=3547447e0188c2eb14c6d91774971da2

Do you know the potential for graphing your network in a much more important way than you do today?


World Wide Web creator Tim Berners-Lee has called for a next-generation social network to allow academics and scientists to share knowledge more efficiently.

Berners-Lee said at the Profiting from the New Web conference in London on Monday that the internet lacks an all-encompassing social network that enables such experts to collaborate on projects.

Such a social network would allow scientists to share information more effectively to tackle the world's most pressing problems, according to Berners-Lee.

He alo points out that examples of graphs are the Internet and the Web. So what's with the Graph word?
