Embedding Webs on the Web

Caribbean researchers keyword network in ManyEyes tool
I’ve created a page to compare various tools for embedding a network diagram on the web. I used a small example set of researchers’ keyword associations. As always, browser compatibility is a big challenge. Most of the options I tested required a fair amount of web coding ability to get them working. I’d love to hear about other tools and ideas I may have missed.

    Have you tried any layouts in http://thejit.org/demos/ ?

    There’s also the Javascript InfoVis toolkit (http://thejit.org/) that you can try. I liked protovis the best so far, but it is difficult to wrap your head around it at first. A day or so and you get it no problem. They both currently work best in Chromium web browser in my experience.
