14. Graph Search - Where’s it going?
Implicit vs. Explicit connections
@HustonHedinger - Founder and CEO @GraphAlchemist - www.graphAlchemist.com - h@graphalchemist.com

15. Generating graph data
Implicit
e.g. user buys something
mirrors actual behavior
@HustonHedinger - Founder and CEO @GraphAlchemist - www.graphAlchemist.com - h@graphalchemist.com

16. Generating graph data
Explicit
!
e.g user chooses to “like” something
(can be ‘faked’)
