title: Visualizing network graph data in R (need library/data recommendations)
body: <p>This is my first foray into doing visualizations of network graph stuff, so bear with me.</p>
  
  <p>I have data (it's currently in a .csv of 100k lines, but I can load it up in a SQL DB of some flavor) with the following info:</p>
  
  <pre><code>location_name, person_name, time_of_day (discretely broken up as: morning, noon, afternoon, night)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Some example rows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>park, David, noon
  park, Tina, morning
  cafe, John, night
  cafe, Shirley, night
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm thinking of treating of analyzing time across separate graphcs (so I'll have a morning graph, noon graph, etc.) -- and for all I care I can generate a chart of all times together and treat combinations of location-time as unique connectors, since my primary interest is the relation between the people in this data.</p>
  
  <p>So given my data format, what functions and libraries would people recommend me looking into?  Also, if there are some golden standards of doing R graph stuff, what kind of data format would people recommend that I transform my current data into?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
