There are more functions and features extended from the capabilities of SNAPP, found in other applications. George gave a long list of similar applications to this "SNA", which I need to try out when I'm free later on...
Re: SNAPP look-alikes | ||
Hi Bert - in your request for SNAPP-look alikes, I assume you are referring to tools that map social networks. If so, there are numerous options available (some free, some not): Netdraw: http://www.analytictech.com/netdraw/netdraw.htm Pajek: http://vlado.fmf.uni-lj.si/pub/networks/pajek/ NodeXL: http://nodexl.codeplex.com/ Netminer: http://www.netminer.com/NetMiner/home_01.jsp Touchgraph: http://www.touchgraph.com/navigator Gephi: http://gephi.org/ UCINet: http://www.analytictech.com/ucinet/ etc. The reason we went with SNAPP for the week 2 activity is that it's a simple browser plugin and doesn't require manually loading data. It demonstrates social network analysis without needing the techical skills of the tools listed above. |
Bert also shared one application as well, called SaNDVIS - coincidently it has the features I suggested in my previous blog, such as tags/keywords that make the threads/connections, and such... Marvellous!! B-)
Thanks, guys! Really worth it joining this MOOC! ;D
