I like working with social APIs, and have been working with R more lately. So I combined the two.
I saved the json results of asking facebook for all of my friends using the graph api.
Using the rjson package for R, I loaded the data into R and broke down the count of friends by gender. I then created a simple bar plot.
It wasn’t rocket science, but a fun project to toy around with and get to know manipulating data in R.
