The social graph is a term introduced by scientists working in the social areas of graph theory. It is described as “the global mapping of everybody and how they’re related” The term was popularized, when it was used to explain that the Facebook Platform, which was introduced at the same time, would benefit from the social graph by taking advantage of the relationships between individuals, that Facebook provides, to offer a richer online experience. The definition has been expanded to refer to a social graph of all Internet users.
“A social graph is a sociogram which depicts all personal relations – typically not more than 100 per person”
Facebook’s Graph API allows websites to draw information about more objects than simply people, including photos, events, and pages, and their relationships between each other. This expands the social graph concept to more than just relationships between individuals and instead applies it to virtual non-human objects between individuals, as well
