Hi,

What do you call the type of chart on this post?

And does anyone know if there are software packages/services out there that make this type of chart?

Thanks

It looks like they probably used Flare:

And used Moritz Stafaner's work for inspiration:

Thanks!
Eigenfactor! I knew it was something like that, but just couldn't remember and all my bookmarking tools failed me.

Now for the hard part - figuring out how to adapt it to my data.

I know what you mean. That's one of my favorites, and I had just revisited it recently, so it was on the top of my head. We see so many great things in this field, it's hard to remember all of them.

Good luck adapting it!
