hi there. was wondering if there is any other simple way of visualizing your data stored in a neo4j graph db.. i have tried the web administration thing but as far as i get it, it will only work with the database stored in a particular location. what if i have more databases in different locations - how could i visualize these? or is there another method like a gui for seeing your database and navigating around it. would be real useful to know. thanks a lot..

Hi there,
you have a number of options, some of which are listed at http://www.neo4j.org/develop/visualize

Does that help?

thanks - those links do help - i will take a look at those options.. but specifically, with the web interface thing, how is it possible to view other databases in different locations on your hard-disk? thanks

Oh,
just change database location of your server in /conf/neo4j-server.properties and you should be opening whatever other db you have on your hard drive.

I was just taking a look at Neoclipse, and Neoclipse's ReadMe file refers people to: 

Please refer to this page for more information:

But that page doesn't exist! So that page should either be added back, or the ReadMe file should be updated.

Thank you!

Do you have a twitter account to credit you? Great screencast! Would
it be ok to refer to it from Neo4j.org?
