Nathan,

Mate that addition is awesome and definitely makes it more measurable – why on earth did I not think of that before, great work. I am going to redo my personal webs using your improved system.

The graphics are all laid out in Inkscape, which is an open source version of illustrator. Definitely worth checking out if you don’t want to drop 3 grand on a graphics program. Doesn’t do everything that illustrator does but it does just about everything you would want – and it’s free.

Great post Jonny. I like visual tools for making sense out of relationships (whether social, conceptual, etc) while my knowledge acquisition is better affected by verbal methods. Anyway…I liked the web and wanted to share something with you that I thought was helpful.

After naming the people on both webs, I assigned a number to each of bands on the “current web” starting at “1″ for the center band, then “2″ for the second, and so on. Then, on “ideal web” I wrote next to each name the “ring number” to which they corresponded on the “current web.” The lower the number on your inner rings, the better your “score,” so to speak. It makes it a lot easier to use for me and makes the process measurable. I really like your concept–what did you use to do the graphics?

Aren’t you crafty! Good work, Tiger. I like this. Wonder how I can get Brad Pitt on my real web. Hmmm…….

Hi Armen,

Hey Jonny.

How cool is this. I have to say they are cool images, and the concept here is very relevant to our function. These 8 people shape a lot of what we do, and the other people behind them also have an impact. If we had a different set of folks around us, we would have an altered set of goals and plans, as their thoughts pervade our thoughts, and their expectations are what we base some of our big decisions on.

Making an ideal web like pointed out here can take someone from regular to successful quickly.
