This reminds me of http://theyrule.net/ http://theyrule.net/ - it is a quite old website, still flash. It would be good to have an open format definition and an open source web frontend for visualizations like this.
The connections of your pet investor might be interesting, but there is much more potential to this if you would ask the people that did theyrule for their data, maybe you can find a way of working together?
- cam_pj 11y agoThanks! I did not know theyrule. Very interesting. CB Insights (someone just sent me the link: https://www.cbinsights.com/business-social-network https://www.cbinsights.com/business-social-network) also have quite a few data points as well.

- cam_pj 11y agoThis is super impressive actually. It seems US centric so I had never seen this work, but wow, there is a lot of stuff. Do you know if journos use this?
- UserRights 11y agoNo, sorry, I do not know. It would be nice to have some kind of standard format for these kind of info so a visualization like yours could be applied easily to different databases. Maybe with some API-mangling (like yahoo pipes) it would be possible to consume several data sources and feed them into your js. Just an idea.
