I’ve already blogged about graphical social network visualisations for boards.ie; I’m now adding to my wiki the scripts used to pre-generate the XML for Prefuse graphs of these networks (i.e. user networks of vBulletin mutual buddy links). These are similar to those used to visualise the blogosphere on Planet Journals as well (just using blogroll links instead of buddy links).

I’ve updated both the vBFOAF RDF metadata producer and vBFriends social network browser extensions for vBulletin 3.5.

This has been useful because I’ve learned a bit about how the new “hook” system works in vBulletin 3.5, and can use this for my next two add-ons that I’m planning to implement next week: a forum post tagger (using Freetag) and a SIOC RDF metadata exporter (which will also export these tags).
