+The Open Graph Viz Platform
+
+Gephi is the leading visualization and exploration software for all
+kinds of graphs and networks. Gephi is open-source and free.
+
+Exploratory Data Analysis: intuition-oriented analysis by networks
+manipulations in real time.
+
+Link Analysis: revealing the underlying structures of associations
+between objects.
+
+Social Network Analysis: easy creation of social data connectors to
+map community organizations and small-world networks.
+
+Biological Network analysis: representing patterns of biological data.
+
+Poster creation: scientific work promotion with hi-quality printable
+maps.
+
+METRICS READY
+
+Centrality: used in sociology to indicate how well a node is
+connected. Available: degree (power-law), betweenness, closeness.
+
+And more: density, path length, diameter, HITS, modularity, clustering
+coefficient.
+
+TECHNOLOGY
+
+Ergonomic interface: no programming skills needed
+
+High-performance: built-in rendering engine.
+
+Native file formats: GDF (GUESS), GraphML (NodeXL), GML, NET (Pajek),
+GEXF and more.
+
+Customizable by plugins: layouts, metrics, data sources, manipulation
+tools, rendering presets and more.
+
+NOTE: Gephi's support for importing even non-trivial Graphviz dot is
+totally broken, so do not rely on it. For dot, the graphviz package
+is providing the gvedit tool.
