Netflix Prize

I made the conceptual view of Netflix Prize.
It’s based on the rules.pdf of NetflixPrize.com.

Big one

Using the Walrus graph visualization tool, I got a relation view of the me2day. It’s starting from a person (I guess he is the CEO of the company), the root node. Actually, it’s a tree (Walrus only for spanning tree for graphs with a spanning tree layout) not a graph. So, I removed the relation between a child node to its parent nodes. We can see who’s the hub of their relationship. It seems there are three big guys in their world. There are 12048 nodes. They are all connected.

It’s just for fun.

Added:
Walrus is for a graph, but it needs a spanning tree and then needs links.

Links

me2day is one of SNSs in Korea like Twitter. The following graph shows the relationships of small groups of people. There is a large reachable graph of 12048 people. I will attempt to draw it in 3D.
