I did have some fun extracting my flist's flists from LJ and then trying to graph the result. Doing it in 2-D (with Graphviz) resulted in a big black splotch made up of a huge number of lines. So I tried it in 3-D (with Wilmascope). That put a powerful modern computer on its knees for about 15 minutes, finally resulting in a screen of pretty much solid blue (the color of connecting links). *sigh*
