Dunbar's Number is a well-known concept which states that the number of social ties a person has is about 150. But... when Dunbar, the famous researcher who came up with this thesis, promoted this idea on his many interviews lately, people's reaction was of disbelief. 150 sounded to them as an inflated number. If it is true, where are all these friends? So who's right - Dunbar or the talkbackers?

To make Network Analysis accessible, we'll learn about a free and popular Network Analysis Software called Gephi. In this episode, Gephi's founder, Mathieu Jacomy, will reveal new features and make you an offer you can't refuse if you're a Java developer 😊. In the next episode, we'll continue this survey with about a dozen more free Network Analysis Software. To help expand the SNA and Network Science community, NETfrix needs you...

This episode is dedicated to improving our intuitions about networks, using the naive idea of 6-Degrees-of-separation and flip it (literally). On the way, we'll learn some new network laws.

Network Science and its dear friend, Data, are here to throw some of our intuitions about politics and partisanship under the nearest bus. Partisanship is Networks' nemesis: Networks are all about connecting while partisanship hacks away at the network's links… So, who shall prevail?

Dynamic networks are data science's Holy Grail. Here we'll learn why, and what are the applications and implications of dynamic networks.  To do so, we'll have to understand what it has to do with complex system, chaos theory and, of course, groundhogs.

How to tell a story about data by using Community Detection in networks. Communities (or clusters) are the building blocks of all networks. In this episode we'll learn about their formation and special features, and how to apply this knowledge on Big Data. And I promise - your views about cauliflowers will never be the same.  PLS review here: http://bit.ly/NETfrix_Review Transcripts are available on SNApod.net See you on the othe...

In this episode we'll learn how to tell a story about data by using the network's gravity centers or hubs. We'll find out that hubs come in many forms and stem from different notions of what it means to be central in a network. We'll learn how to find them and how to apply this knowledge to many fields, like social media, advertising and... even on Game Of Thrones. No spoilers.

What do Facebook, Bitcoin and an ad campaign for designer glasses have in common? They all conform to Network Science laws. These laws are universal and are manifested in a n y network. Understanding these laws would change your perception of the world, and your data. I've warned you - Network Analysis is a powerful tool. Use it wisely - don't lose your head.

Milgram, the famous researcher from the 60's, set out to find how small is our world and came back with the 6-degrees-of-separation slogan, meaning the human society's network is seemingly just 6 links in diameter. Why seemingly? Because we are going to find out that Milgram got it wrong and the truth about the network is even less intuitive than he imagined.  PLS review here: http://bit.ly/NETfrix_Review
