***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** I would recommend ORA http://www.casos.cs.cmu.edu and follow the link for ORA.  You just add a nodeset and label it.  You add an edgeset and define the links.  The visualizer gives you many options.  If you hit the pause button you can put the nodes where you like and copy and paste into ppt or word.  You can also represent multi-plex ties.  You can also size nodes by measure or attribute and even define unique images for the nodes.  I like to use the images when briefing an organization, because I can put head and shoulder pictures of the people instead of a dot.

Dear Rusty Tunnard,
 
You could try Inkscape. It's a heavy program and sometimes clumsy with connecting lines to nodes.
But it can nevertheless generate some nice visuals.

Subject: [SOCNET] Simple network drawing program

***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org *****

I need to draw some non-data-driven, illustrative networks for a paper.  In other words,  I want to construct a network out of nodes and edges that are easy to label, configure, and arrange.  I find PowerPoint clumsy, Visio too hierarchical-org-chart-centric, and  freehand (especially mine) is out of the question.

 

Does anyone know of some simple program out there that can do what I need?

 

Thanks,

Rusty Tunnard
