The Internet Map


For an above the average kinda techie guy, I still feel there is a lot of untapped tech stuff out there that I haven't come across and a lot that I wouldn't probably understand given a lifetime unless I try to put in an effort. So I happen to come across this page, apparently the author's personal project, and I for one admire the simplicity in what he was trying to explain internet traffic.

Quoting from theverge.com, "Imagine the web as a giant galaxy where the planets are sites clustered together by likeness, where each site represented by a circle varies in size depending on the amount of traffic it gets" 

Speaks volumes and any dummy can understand this.
Again if you enter your country, it shows the sites with most traffic there. No clue how authentic the data is, but you get the point. :)
