The winning entries of the Netsci “Competition on visualizing network dynamics” are posted here. The winning entry, by Aaron Koblin of UCLA, is a representation of flight data from the FAA. It is truly stunning in its elegance and beauty—something that even non network types would enjoy watching.
There are many worthy runner-ups. One I would highlight is the entry by Bender-deMoll, McFarland, and Moody, which shows the interactions patterns within a classroom, using the network visualization software SoNIA. It was particularly powerful, I think, in conveying the importance of timing and sequence in a communication network.

Those network visualizations are quite pretty... a real-time network viz would make a great screen saver.
Great blog by the way... I'm fascinated by how social networks are so pervasive in our everyday lives.
