This reminds me of an analysis I once did: https://github.com/astanway/Crunchbase-Network-Analysis The data from Crunchbase is very, very dirty, but I managed to clean it up a lot. Feel free to fork if you want pre-built NetworkX graphs.

It's not the semantic interpretation of text that they're banning, but the scraping of text, which deals with copying what they'd prefer to sell you. Still an abhorrence, but let's get our facts straight.

I agree, but it's very tough to innovate and solve problems that you don't even know exist. That kind of information would be very valuable. Maybe that's the first step.

I developed it at PennApps a couple weeks ago. I'll be adding GitHub authentication soon, so you can add all your logs to the site. Was kind of hoping it didn't make HN until then :)
