Wouldn’t it be great if everyone could generate this sort of map to see who’s in their second circle (friend of a friend)? Valdis writes:

This is a social network map of the people I follow on Twitter. They cluster into three emergent clusters — each with a different color node. The arrows show who follows whom within my Twitter community. To interact with the network map drag the zoom slider to the right and double click on a node to go to their Twitter Page in the lower frame or click the Help button below.
