Nexus is neat Facebook application that lets you visualize connections between all of your friends. It’s a fascinating way to examine how your friends fall into clusters and interrelate. My clusters clearly correlate with phases of my life stretching all the way back to elementary school. Cool stuff.

It’s also interesting to see which friends are the “focal” contacts who link across different groups and people. It’s too bad this tool isn’t available for LinkedIn or a different business site. It would be incredibly useful to see how business contacts and groups connect with each other.

Nexus is a product of Ludios Networks.
