Best practices for social network modeling

Hi,

 

Wer'e beeing trying to get our heads around what is the best way to model a social network over TIME in neo4j.

The issue is ofcourse having many nodes which interacts with one another on a daily basis.

 

Creating a new edge for every day of interaction is a no-go for us since it could quickly blow up.

 

We could not find any paper that would work on a large scale networks, only small ones.

 

One option is to manage an attribute over the edge which contains a list of dates correaponds to the days of interactions.

 

Would appreciate any comments or ides on how to best manage it and to enable the best performance when quering over a period of time.'

 

 

Thanks
