When this series of BB started someone posted a link to a Social Network Graph which basically ilustrates the interaction between the housemates through some fancy IRC technology. I have waited patiently for the day that Saskia is forgotten about and now that day has come!

Now if we can only shut Craig up about Maxwell...

Isn't Eugene right out on a limb there - his strongest connection is with Derek! And poor Roberto is further away than someone who never even made it into the house proper

Hi.
Quite an interesting graph.

But I don't understand how those links represent relationships between housemates.

This graphs the popularity between chat users talking about housemates to each other, right?

So how on earth does that all translate on the graph?
For example, why is Ant connected to Craig, or Science connected to Makosi?
I don't get it.

The housemates aren't using IRC are they?..It's just the people who are using IRC.

Can you explain how the housemate's relationships are worked out please, because I'm not sure what it all means?
It's not very clear to me what the graph is actually saying.

It's updated every 10 minutes (or should be) so Mary would have come and gone already. And the information is from the Live Updates so if the FM's updating didn't note Vanessa saying this, it wouldn't have been input.

The person who owns it posted a while back.

The information input comes from the live updates. The width of the lines represents how much they are spoken about and "together".

Not sure exact but I'll go search for the thread, it's something like that anyway.

Thanks for finding that original link Stewart, reading the posts made me laugh especially this

Maxwell and Saskia have a very strong link between them (probably because Max is gagging for it and won't give up).

Craig seems to be in the middle of the network, with lots of emanating links. I suppose that's the best place to be if you're a s**t stirrer!
Not much changed then!

Saskia will be off the radar when people stop posting threads about her.

The quickest way to forget someone is not to post in their threads so they disappear.

Damn so I just did but this is definitely the last time!

Actually it's taken from the live updates, not the threads
