About this Blogsphere:

This blogsphere attempts to capture, catalog and share resources relating to visual perception of information. It is about a world mostly dealing with Physical (Touch, Taste, See/Sight, Smell and Hear) and sometimes Metaphysical (and that is none-of-the-above category). Physical, for instance, touch (e.g., feel, felt, found), look and visualization, is here with an attempt to combine verbal, vocal and visual--to synchronously see, hear, share and do much more. Interestingly, in order to visualize one does not need special skills, competencies, etc. It is all about common sense, especially with human visualizations. In short, "information is in the eye of the beholder." Continue reading much more all-ado-about this Blogosphere

    Extract:
  • The How: Facebook Graph Search:  Depicted in the figure below, is a user-centric version of the Facebook Open Graph schema. To dig deeper, I used a tool called Gruff, from Franz Inc, which provides beautiful visual displays of information in graph databases. I did take several “views” of the information as there were about 804 triple sets (subject, predicate, object ) which probably form the higher level data structure from which Facebook can derive its structured/graph search....
