A visualization put together by 410 Labs’ Dave Troy displays the interconnectedness — or, as Troy argues, lack thereof — among Baltimore-area nonprofits.

Troy says that the LinkedIn data from which these visualizations are mapped “is slowly but surely becoming a close approximation of reality. … It will get better over time.”
