DataScienceCentral Users – No Klout Via LinkedIn
The retrieval of 11,712 DataScienceCentral profiles completed earlier today. I found about 2,600 instances of ‘linkedin’ when I checked the extract dt/dd files.

This is what you are doing manually with the five colored stars Maltego lets you use to group entities.
