Silicon Valley Audience Graph • Social Signal

Silicon Valley's ten nearest neighbors are almost entirely tech media and tech-adjacent personalities — not other TV shows. The shape is flat: scores run from 0.9478 (Gizmodo) down to 0.9409 (VICE Sports), a spread of less than seven hundredths, with no single neighbor pulling away from the pack.

The core of the cluster is digital tech publishing. Gizmodo (0.95) and WIRED (0.95) sit at the top, followed closely by The Verge (0.95) and TechCrunch (0.94), with Engadget (0.94) rounding out the media contingent. That's five of the ten neighbors drawn from tech blogs, magazines, and websites. The remaining five are more varied: Slack (0.95) and Naval Ravikant (0.94) represent the tech industry itself; Malala Yousafzai (0.95) is the lone activist in the set; Trader Joe's (0.94) is the lone grocery brand; and VICE Sports (0.94) is the lone news publisher. No other TV show appears in the top 10.

The flat distribution across this mix suggests Silicon Valley draws an audience defined less by its format as a TV show and more by an orientation toward the tech industry — one that overlaps heavily with the readership of tech media outlets and the followings of tech figures.
