1. A method for visualizing relationships and relationship strengths of data comprising: receiving, by one or more processors, a dataset that includes a plurality of nodes; identifying, by one or more processors, relationships between a plurality of interacting nodes within the dataset; determining, by one or more processors, relationship strength values between a plurality of interacting node pairs within the dataset, wherein a user, represented by a node, actively assigns an importance value to each interaction the user participates in, wherein the importance values are taken into consideration along with a frequency of interactions to calculate a strength-of-relationship value; generating, by one or more processors, a graphical representation that represents the relationship strength values between the plurality of interacting nodes within the dataset, wherein interacting node pairs are connected by edges, wherein a distance between the interacting node pairs provides a correlation with the relationship strength value between the interacting node pairs, and wherein a calculation to determine the distance between the interacting node pairs includes an equation: l ⁡ ( e i ) = L · 1.0 0.5 + e - ( 5 · ( s i - s avg ) ) ( 1 ) where l(e i ) is a length of an edge corresponding to a record i; L is a scaling factor specific to a visualization and chosen by a user; s i is a numeric strength-of-relationship for the record i; and s avg is an average numeric strength-of-relationship; displaying, by one or more processors, the graphical representation to a user, wherein the graphical representation depicts the relationship strength values between the plurality of interacting nodes within the dataset such that the relationship strength values between the plurality of interacting node pairs are conveyed to the user; counting, by one or more processors, a number of interactions between interacting node pairs; increasing, by one or more processors, the relationship strength value based, at least in part, on each interaction counted; and generating, by one or more processors, an animation showing a change in relationship strength over time using a plurality of graphical representations that represent a specified time period.
