Social networks of murder
I'm just reading a long but gripping study that used social network analysis to look at murder as a social interaction between gangs in Chicago to understand how stable networks of retaliation are sustained over time.

Unweaving the tangled web
The New York Times has a brilliant article on how human traits and behaviours, including everything from happiness to obesity, can spread through social networks.
This data allowed sociologists Nicholas Christakis and James Fowler to reconstruct the social networks of the participants and test how family, work and friendship connections affected the spread of things like happiness, obesity and smoking.
