So I "surfed" through the mash-ups and 3rd party tools. Some of the mash-ups were not impressive but I did find a couple quite interesting. I think my favorite was the flickr graph. It is a website-specific twist on 6-degrees of separation. You register and then it connects you to anyone who posts comments or communicates with you on flickr.com. Then you can visualize how people you connect with actually connect you to others, etc. I wonder if Keven Bacon uses flickr.com? *giggle*
I also liked the quirky sense of humor. The top of the page has the quote "A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems." - Paul Erdos. You gotta love geek humor. :o)
Continuing on now........
