What is social network?

What is a social network for which it is easiest to obtain a social graph?

  • For testing my algorithms I need real social graphs, and it is tempting to use social graphs of existing social networks. I'm trying to download Twitter's social graph but this turns out to be too hard. Not only because of rate limits, but also because my applications are getting banned with no good reason. So I'm giving up on Twitter and searching for another social network which has better policies regarding access to its social graph.

  • Answer:

    SNAP from Stanford has a collection of large network datasets that you can try, including Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and Slashdot. http://snap.stanford.edu/data/index.html
