X / Twitter Networks analyzed with NodeXL Pro
X (previously known as Twitter) is a microblogging platform with a complex ecosystem of interactions, relationships, and conversations. With NodeXL, get deep insights and uncover the intricate connections formed with every post (tweet).
X / Twitter networks emerge when users engage in activities like:
- Mentions: When a user cites another in their post (tweet), they create a link.
- Replies: Direct interactions with a post (tweet) form a bond between the author of the reply and the original poster.
- Retweets (repost): Amplifying another user’s content creates yet another type of connection.
These actions collectively craft the vast web of X / Twitter network connections. When analyzed, these collections of connections illuminate patterns, influence hierarchies, and relationships.
