Mapping the social network to create social maps is a great way to make social networks tangible.
This map from Loic Lemeur is one of my favourites perhaps for its simplicity
Although there are plenty of other ways to visualise the social graph some awesome ones here and here
It is interesting how diverse the interpreted graphs are. This is a reminder that the timelessness of experience on the internet means that in reality we can’t capture or freeze a moment in time, and in viusualising an individual social map (in a snapshot sense) we are in effect distorting reality by adding subjectivity.
