Title:	Social Network Data Extraction From Online Communities	Image:SocialNetworkDataExtraction.png
Description:	With the growth of the Web and the emergence of online communities, a huge amount of data regarding social relationships is now available, that was unthinkable until a few years ago. The network of connections may unveil precious information about communities structures and dynamics and the spreading of information in the Web. Aim of this project is to design and develop a software tool to extract this kind of data from a single social network platform (decided by the student). It may be required also some kind of analysis or visual representation of the data collected.
