Cofounder of Kumu here. A little about this map - we normally work with social networks and systems maps but thought it could be fun to map the ALS challenge since the format naturally built its own network based on the nominations. It's also fun to watch some of the celebs in their own element, often with their families. Hope you enjoy and this saves a bit of time searching for videos!

Very cool, I wanted to build one myself. How long did it take to compile the dataset?

Thanks chairmankaga! We compiled it over the past week. Probably took between 10-20 hours to get all the connections, then grab images and videos for each person. More information on building with Kumu is available here: http://help.kumu.io
