- Network theory: Representation of relation (node-link)
- Social network theory: understanding relation of humans
- On-line social network: structures (financial, sexual, friendship...)
=> Virtual community ~~ Visualization method
Networks (shneiderman`s mantra) - Indivisual views (bottom-up? from element to whole) - Whole views (top-down? from whole to element)
