Bunnygraphics
While monitoring the current bunnymeme list set up at delicious, I had the idea to map the current spread of the meme as a directed graph. Using graphviz' dot this can be quite easily achieved, and thus below you can find the current map of the bunnyverse1). Enjoy!
Update: I highlighted those nodes already providing the world with a bunny. Idea courtesy of splitbrain.
Update: The graph is now also available in an image-mapped version. Thanks to xtaran for the idea.
Update: And another interactive version of the graph using splitbrain's newly released graphgear plugin. Enjoy! The current dotfile used to generate all this stuff can BTW be found here.
Update: Thanks to some weird behaviour in all tested2) graphviz installations the image-mapped version is currently imagemap-less. I hope it will return to being imagemappy, but right now simply can't find a reason why the generation of the map data by dot -Tcmapx that worked like a charm on sunday only produces empty maps everywhere since monday.
Update: And the imagemap is back! Thanks go to splitbrain (again
) for tracking this down
Update: I removed the date of the last update from this blogpost since I think I disrupted the RSS feed of this blog enough as it is with all the bunny updates
However, the graph is still being updated once I get to know of new bunnies, and the current image is now embedded and a link to the imagemapped version of the graph.

Wonderful idea. It also makes it easy to spot the chain breakers that didn't tag three other people (I'm looking at you demod and JayPiKay)
Oh one more thing: could you color the bubbles of those blogs that already did a bunny?
Done
Hi,
I have a small question about the image-mapped version. I presume you did not map all the links manually so can I ask how you did it ?
Did you use your own script or is it possible with the graphgear plugin ?
The reason I am asking is because I need to make a flowchart (for troubleshooting purposes on our helpdesk) which is going to be in a dokuwiki site and most of the boxes in the flowchart need to point to a certain wiki entry. To do this by hand is an absolute nightmare so I am looking for alternative ways of doing this.
Could you please supply your answer to me by email, I would be most grateful.
Kind Regards,
Adrian.
The graph was created using Graphviz's dot.
