Connectivism
Can we use visualization technologies to ensure our
networks are valid as well as disperse enough to ensure a wide array of
knowledge? I have begun to collect Twitter follower information to
generate this limited visual representation of Twitter connections.

With only 6 networks added to the list, we can start to see nodes
develop. However more data is required. If you would like to add your
Twitter Friend information to the visual please follow these steps:
For everyone that reads this and has a Twitter account, even any of your friends with a Twitter account I have found a way to simplify the visualization process of our social connections. In just a couple of simple steps:
1. Go to this website http://bit.ly/nHAQU
2. Back-up your Twitter Friends (only your Friends, nothing else please)
3. Send your back-up file to tom.whyte at gmail dot com and I will do the rest
The more information we have the more connections will be seen, and then we can determine if it shows us anything or not? Alec Couros has noticed a small problem, Tweetake will only take 200 users if you follow more than that sorry that issue has not been resolved.
Thank you for helping with this little experiment...
