If you click into this using IE, you are trapped by your detection page and it breaks the back function. Please consider fixing this. I know we dont like IE users, but please dont punish them!
I learned three things: 1) There are many, many more reddits than I knew about but I can't read that many. 2) That is a very nice library. I guess you have a simple spring system which compute the relative placements of the different things? 3) It is really fun to play with the springs. In fact, I will do that now.
2) Yes, every node is a particle, every edge is a spring. Then you apply forces and mother nature does the rest. It always amazed me.
Hopefully this isn't on my side, but clicking on "The dark side of RATP (Paris metro) tickets" from /r/ReverseEngineering gives link address http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=fr&tl=en... which resolves to a blank translate page. The url from Reddit direct is: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=fr&tl=en&js... Looks like the handling of & on your side? Looks very cool though :)
It should be fixed now :). Thank you for pointing out!
Any easy way to set/get the exact position of nodes? rather than have it automatically generated, or overriding the automatically assigned position.
graph.forEachNode(function(node) { console.dir(node.position); });
By default nodes will not have any position assigned. Only after you run one step of layout algorithm ( https://github.com/anvaka/VivaGraphJS/blob/master/src/Layout... ) they get their positions.
Minor typo on your about page: Yasiv is a visual di S covery engine.
Very nice. Thanks for including links to other graph libraries in your README on github. I have a "weekend" project coming up that requires this style of graph, so I'll be sure to try your library out.
Very nice work! I wonder if it's possible to highlight the reddit mascot with css according to the :visited pseudo-class if you put an a-element around it (or some other way)? Showing "recent activity" for sub-reddits in a subtle way would be awesome, too, can't click on everything :) Small detail: if the search term has a white-space around, no results are found.
I will look into :visited and fix the white spaces. And what is a "recent activity"?
Do something similar for Wikipedia categories, please :)
Earlier quoted context omitted.
What "things" would you link together in twitter and facebook?
I'm guessing how friends/followers are connected. Whole 6 degrees of separation idea
LinkedIn has InMaps app ( http://inmaps.linkedinlabs.com/ ) which shows your network. It's cool, but really hard to read it...
useful software if you happen to often work with graphs : http://gephi.org . The ForceAtlas V2 algorithm which is an optimization of Barnes-Hut one is pretty fast !
