Data visualization fascinates me in general, but today I spent way too long visualizing my own data. Nexus, a Facebook application, plots out the relationships between all my Facebook friends.

I spent a happy half hour navigating different periods of my social life as represented by dots and lines. My time abroad in Australia resulted in an isolated web of friends. My first job out of college created a perfect star shape of friends. Here and there I noticed an outliers - a little dot with no lines.  I wonder if I am a solitary dot on their graph as well?
