It really irritates me, almost unreasonably so, that I cannot view a larger version of that map. And I've been searching for it since the first time it was posted. Take this post [1] for example, where it says "Click on the map to learn more". Clicking on the map refreshes the page. It also has a link that says "To make sense of the patterns I'm seeing, I've marked and labeled the clusters, and added some notes about the properties they have in common." When you click the link... still the same page.
What good is this Facebook Graph visualization without being able to see anything more than a low-res thumbnail?
Yup. And clicking the image there goes to fanpageanalytics.com, which seems to be a parked domain? There's only one page and it's completely irrelevant to anything.
His blog says he was almost sued by Facebook, but for making a site to crawl Facebook's graph. Obviously he's not being sued by Facebook for creating the image because the image is everywhere, but only as a ridiculously tiny version.
Unfortunately it appears as if the original image was just stretched to a larger size, but if that's the case the resolution you're looking for just may not be available.
Definitely. Even in larger versions in the map, are there any that clearly distinguish state lines and major cities? Omitting this information makes it hard to examine these regions from a cultural perspective.
