The propagation and influence is an important problem for online social network. In this paper, we develop a visualization toolkit for online social network propagation and influence analysis and predication which can not only present the main trend of the propagation and influence, but also can present them in multiple views e.g., time and location distribution. Considering the existing works mostly analysis the propagation and influence with the structure of the social network and the features of the individuals, in this paper, we also try to introduce the features of the information content to the problems. The main technologies and implementation results of the toolkit are introduced in this paper.
