MySpace Aminer Social Graph (Follower Network)
A MySpace dataset of 854,498 users, 6,489,736 directed follower edges, collected by Zhang and Tang via AMiner. Each record contains directed follower edges (source -> target means source follows target). Large-scale MySpace follower graph from AMiner, capturing social connections among 854K users. Suitable for social network analysis, community detection, influence propagation, graph embedding.
