okay, i’m pretty sure i’ve dropped $THX to everyone that has provided their ENS/addy so far.

check your wallets if that's you.

today, i did a some research into what kind of graphs I might be able to generate, and what data I'd need to record along the way to make it easy (building a schema).

and then tried to form questions I'd like to answer with this experiment, based on what i know is possible to visualize.

so here's my preliminary list of questions:

• who did i thank the most?

• what did i give thanks for?

• how often?

• how much did i give each time?

• ternary: social support, technical support, ???

• ternary: helpful, kind, ???

• proximity score — how close to me are the people getting thanks?

and i’m currently still trying to figure out how to graph/visualize:

• what things might show that my social bonds are strengthening from this?

• how can I measure friction/delight?

next, I need to start creating opportunities to interact with my friends and other semi-proximate people so that I can get token distribution rolling.

as far as the coding, I can start working on reading csv data into python and (probably) plotly and/or pandas.

I'm just manually tracking data in a spreadsheet for now, so ingest should be pretty straightforward.

and after that it's on to building the graphs in whatever UI I pick. thinking maybe a Jupyter notebook, but we'll see.
