This is from Social Collider which reveals connections between conversations on Twitter. Apparently, it shows how a topic (here: guerillagardener) link or don’t link with other users or topics and the action is tracked temporally.

Because I changed topics, I didn’t have to analyse this – and I’m quite glad of that. But I think on surface viewing it gives an attractive overview of how connections are made.

This presents a potential paradox to the *non-human* Internet of Things and Blogjects that Bleeker discusses.
