Dynamic exploration of the graphs ? (http://github.com/jbilcke/tinaweb http://github.com/jbilcke/tinaweb)

Wow, it seems like Japan is the second most popular country (after the US) with 8%. It is not clear 8% of what, but I had no idea there was so much open-source programming in Japan. I rarely hear about Japanese programming efforts. Another note: I wish it was possible to zoom into these pictures. Because right now it's like looking at a ball of cotton. EDIT: Sorry, I didn't notice the "All Sizes" options in Flickr.

  Perhaps it may get the http://cpan-explorer.org/ http://cpan-explorer.org/ treatment? In meantime I just clicked on each picture which brought me to the flickr page and downloaded the largest image.

    I will try to publish dynamic map soon, so you can search people on the graphs.

My vanity has kicked in and I want to know where my name is in the Ruby map. I can see myself in the downloaded .gdf file, but don't understand the coordinate system. Can someone explain it to me? Update: I downloaded Gephi and poked around, but haven't yet found a search feature. Still looking...

  The coordinate system is obtained from a force-directed algorithm. Iteratively linked nodes attract each others, whereas non-linked repulse. And to search, go to the "Data Laboratory" and filter. Right-click on a row and "Select on graph". Then go back to the graph, the camera is centered on the node.

Wow, so cool. For some reason I've shown up on the Python list rather than Ruby.
