Dear all,

for a while now I am thinking that there is a mismatch between the freedom we have in creating network graphs and the limitations we face when we try to share them. Roughly the options right now are 1) static images, 2) screencasts, 3) animations of dynamic graphs, 4) custom solutions in environments like D3 or Sigma.js.

There is a nice example of how graph-like representations and storytelling can go together: http://www.npr.org/2010/10/27/130845545/a-web-of-gop-influence

And http://storymap.knightlab.com/ is a great tool to tell stories based on maps.

So I wonder whether you would have good use for a tool like http://storymap.knightlab.com/ for network graphs?

Right now I am trying to get a first sense of others thinks about this. To give your opinion please tick the box in this anonymous Google Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1jBSkjbdmbJuo5fs8cZkE5gEEs_sSjod_G-K3DV5kng4/viewform

Any input is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Marten
