How to use

  1. Generate or upload a 2 column edge list (target/source) to Google Spreadsheets
  2. File > Publish to the web…
  3. Copy the spreadsheet url and paste it in
  4. Click ‘get sheet names’ and select the sheet with your data on
  5. Enter the comma separated column letters for where your data is stored
  6. ‘go’

Advanced tips

You can specify a 3rd column with link styles for each of your edge rows. The default is solid but there are two more options ‘dashed’ and ‘dashedblue’

Like TAGSExplorer the data used for your diagram is queryable  so you can refine what you see.

Something for TAGS users

If you are using a more recent version of my Twitter Archiving Google Spreadsheet (TAGS), v2.3 or greater, you can generate an edge list for follow/followee relationships from the Summary sheet data. To do this create a sheet called ‘Edges’ then run Twitter > Get Protovis.
