Looking for a dataviz app that has an intuitive GUI. Preferably open source with SVG export on OS X. Suggestions (other than "build one!")?

@mollydotcom the best I've found is @gephi. If you're willing to write js instead of using an app, I'd suggest d3js.org

@thebestsophist Trying out @gephi now. Definitely appears to fit the bill for a majority of my current needs.

@mollydotcom I use yEdit for quick schematics. Not open source though but does ok SVGs

@frankjonen yEdit - couldn't find a Mac OS version.

@mollydotcom Not sure you’ll find a good free one, unless you’re okay with GraphViz. There’s OmniGraffle, quite $$ though.

@erynofwales doesn't need to be free, but not mega-expensive. I prefer open source if possible. Didn't know OmniGraffle had SVG export!

@mollydotcom You know anyone @ @TAMU's #VizLab? I'm sure they know of a couple.
