There exist several pages ou there offering access to social network illustration. One of my favourites is visual complexity by Digital Information Graphics. The site includes business networks, food webs, political networks, transportation networks, social networks, to mention but a few. Founder Matt Woolman argue that "Functional visualizations are more than innovative statistical analyses and computational algorithms. They must make sense to the user and require a visual language system that uses colour, shape, line, hierarchy and composition to communicate clearly and appropriately, much like the alphabetic and character-based languages used worldwide between humans." Illustration shows Jeffrey Heers visualization of Enron e-mail networks.
