Basic methodology: grab followers with Twitter API, import into Gephi, filter out accounts with >100k followers, compute "Modularity", color code based on modularity, size nodes based on in-degree, layout with ForceAtlas2.

It's fun to play "identify the communities". Any help in the ones I can't identify or mess up are appreciated. Suggestions for accounts to do next are welcome. PM me if you want any of the Gephi files.

@MenanderSoter It's complicated - Green is probably the most core group in one sense - Blue is a vaguely precursor group / publication-oriented - Orange and pink are adjacent groups, most likely with a lot of overlap Expect major divides are based on secondary/off-twitter media

You will only find yourself on one of these Twitter graphs if the 'subject' (i.e. the root person the graph is based on) follows you. If I haven't done a graph for a subject who follows you (yet), you won't be on it

I worded this unclearly. I start with a 'subject' Twitter account. Then, I grab the accounts the subject follows. The graph represents the relationships between all those accounts.
