NNDB is an intelligence aggregator that tracks the activities of people thry have determined to be noteworthy

What Company Is Offering:

NNDB is an intelligence aggregator that tracks the activities of people thry have determined to be noteworthy, both living and dead. Superficially, it seems much like a "Who's Who" where a noted person's curriculum vitae is available (the usual information such as date of birth, a biography, and other essential facts.) But it mostly exists to document the connections between people, many of which are not always obvious. A person's otherwise inexplicable behavior is often understood by examining the crowd that person has been associating with. Eventually, they will have synopses and analyses of creative works by the people in the database, including their books, films, and recordings.

How It Works:

The NNDB Mapper is a visual tool for exploring the connections between people in NNDB, linking them together through family relations, corporate boards, movies and TV, political alliances, and shadowy conspiracy groups. Maps can be saved and shared for others to explore.
