From the Neo4j Community: January 2016

The Neo4j community kicked off 2016 with a bang: This month has more blog posts, videos, presentations and GraphGists than ANY other month previous. With so much great content to dive into this month, we know that 2016 will be a great year for graphs and for Neo4j.

Below are all of the many Neo4j articles and projects we saw published in the month of January. We hope you enjoy them, and thank you to all our community members that make the Neo4j community such a great one to be a part of!
