I’ve been giving a little thought to various types of connections between individuals. I’ve come up with the following list:
• Genetic – family (aka “blood”)
• Marriage or relationship
• Friends
• Acquaintances
• Friends of friends (n degree of separation)
• Business
• Interests
• Geographic
How would these connections between individuals be represented visually? Color immediately comes to mind, but if degree of connectedness (strength of the connection) is a consideration as well, what would work best? Would a combination of color and line weight work best? What would work visually as well as being intuitive?
