Abstract

A system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a computer-implemented method for providing social graph maintenance services is presented. Consistent with some embodiments, the method may include accessing a social graph of a subject user. The social graph may include a plurality of nodes representing objects to which the subject user has a relationship and a plurality of edges representing the relationships. The method may further include determining that a particular node lacks relevance to the subject user. In response to determining that the particular node lacks relevance to the subject user, the relationship with the particular node is eliminated.
