Have anyone ever heard of or has and idea of how to create a "Swarm" or "Nodal System" data visualization with JQuery and HTML5?

I've got a site with lot's of users. The user's have relationships to each other. Some are linked to more than one. I want to show a bunch of avatars with lines coming from each one connecting them to other avatars.

The idea is that users can look at the "Swarm" and understand who is connected to whom.

Here's a page with some samples of what I'm looking for: Data Visualization Examples

  • That page you linked to has several examples, none of which alike. Which did you want? – Brad Nov 03 '11 at 19:14
  • @Brad: the page has one titled "Swarm" my vote is to assume that one until corrected otherwise... – Chris Pfohl Nov 03 '11 at 19:17
  • @Cpfohl, Ah, I see it now, thanks! It's too bad http://labs.digg.com/swarm/ is down... perhaps it is reusable as is? Are you able to access that site? – Brad Nov 03 '11 at 19:19
  • @Brad: not a problem. Hope I didn't sound snarky, it wasn't meant to be, but looking back it it it might have sounded so... – Chris Pfohl Nov 03 '11 at 19:21
  • sorry guys, I should have mentioned an example - http://arianna.libero.it/graph/search/abin/graphnews?lemma=APPLE, – Ward Nov 04 '11 at 05:08
