Network of Social Network Scholars
Last week June and I attended the Sunbelt Social Network conference, sponsored by INSNA -- the network of social network analysts.
It was great conference focusing on all aspects of social network analysis. When it started in the 1970s it was an academic conference, but every year, as of late, more and more practitioners show up. Both June and I did presentations of our recent work in community network mapping and weaving. Great people [old friends, new friends], great weather, well organized, great conversations! Thanks to John Skvoretz, Chris McCarty, Russ Bernard and all of the other organizers!
The organizers provided a goodie bag and inside was a nice USB jump drive with some social network data on it! The author and co-author data was gathered by Chris McCarty from the field's top journal: Social Networks. I took the coauthor data and made a little web app from it. It is a simple network mashup that connects the coauthor network to Google Scholar.
Enjoy!
