Hyperlink analysis tools
Hello. I am a graduate student studying hyperlink analysis. I am looking for some softwares to identifying the structures of web links. If anyone knows good softwares for that, please, let me know. Thank you.

the answer will depend on the scale and type of research you want to do, along with the kind of questions you plan to try to answer. At the very lowest end, you can do this kind of work with something like Excel or Access. In the middle range, look especially at UCINET, Pajek, Siena, and a few other tools. The R statistical programming environment and databases like PostgreSQL are quite useful for medium-large datasets. On the upper end, to deal with very large networks of links, you'll be writing much of your own software. There just aren't generalizable tools to deal with very large networks. --elijah
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knew how to go about getting individuals stills from computer games. I do have a Mac that imports from DVD... Thanks in advance, Shoshana Shoshana Magnet PhD Candidate, Institute of Communication Research University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign Managing Editor, The Communication Review
what version OS do you have? I have OS X and there a program called Grab in Utilities that can work for this - screen capture is the way to go, I would think. r

unfortunately this tends not to work with full-screen games that use DirectX or OpenGl - the OS doesn't really 'know' what's in the screen buffer, so captures are hard to do. a lot of the high-end games (half-life, quake1/2/3, Doom3, etc) have some facility built into them for making "movies" of a session. for some of them, that may be the only way to get captures without placing a physical camera in front of your display.... elijah
To follow on Elijah's suggestion of actually shooting the screen, these may be of help: http://web.archive.org/web/20000818190841/http://www.agfaphoto.com/library/d... http://www.southgatearc.org/atv/tvphotos.htm I recall contructing out of cardboard a camera mount for my monitor, c. 1986, based on an article in (I think) Creative Computing. Seems a bit silly now, but certainly doable, and may end up taking up less time than finding a working software solution. Depending on the game, you should definitely check out FRAPS: http://www.fraps.com/, which will work with many OpenGL-based games, but chokes on some of the newest (e.g., Halo2, aparently). You'll need the resources on your system for the added overhead. Finally, if you are looking for video or are OK with a reduction of image quality, you could always use a cheap tv-out card to dump it to a VCR or another computer. There are also specialized digital RGB recorders, but these are *really* not cheap. FWIW, Alex On Sun, 5 Dec 2004 10:28:47 -0600 (CST), elijah wright <elw@stderr.org> wrote:

I've taken images from Final Fantasy, Everquest, alpha world, etc. I just use the "print screen" button on the key pad--then exit the game and go to power point or anywhere else you can paste a picture and hit the paste button. You can then crop the picture to get rid of any things that were included in the "print screen" that you don't want.
