"Almost everything looks like a graph. Almost nothing should be drawn as one."
It's really hard to make sense of full link graph visualisations. I'm talking about this in an upcoming conference presentation. We should share notes :)
- hathawayp 9y agoAbsolutely. In development we tried different ways to make the Crawl Map also represent link data, and they were all just unintelligible. Even the Crawl Maps on big sites are hard to get your head around, and that's with Sitebulb sampling quite heavily. I'd love for us to come up with some sort of solution for it, I just don't know how we'd do it! SL presentation I assume?
- will_critchlow 9y agoYep. Will be sharing and writing about it too - still a bit of a work-in-progress. Hopefully it all comes together nicely! I'm leaning towards comparisons between tables of data, metrics etc rather than visualisations for much of this.
- will_critchlow 9y agoOh - I meant to say - that quote is from this book: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596514556.do http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596514556.do
- hathawayp 9y agoNice, thanks. Just ping me or Gareth if you want any of our input :)
