Although LinkedIn shows you are connected it doesn't do it visually.
Perhaps the MM Map could perform that task showing "You" in the center and the relationship of others. Only thing is I wonder of the central topic/tree map model is a viable format

I use MM X5 Pro for my Ph.D dissertation in 4 ways : (a) as a CMS (b) as a analyser tools in replacement of Atlas-ti (c) as a publishing tools for Web pages, PPT and Word (d) as an intermediary social network analysis tool in complement to UCINET and NetMiner.

(Pleased apologize my english)

MM X5 help me to combined qualitative and quantitative approaches.

I think that it will be terrific if MM integrating graph theory.

Also, I combine concept map and social network = knowledge network (Contractor, 2002)

I remain available to more extensive discussion.

P.S I mind mapping since 1985 and use Mind Manager since 1995.

Regards, Diane
