Very interesting. Any idea of any of the sources used? Also what determined the exact sizes of things like Apple, Microsoft, or IBM?
Also, JB_UWM, when you originally posted this you had inquired about how to "share" a post. Since it's been edited I'm assuming you've figured it out. But if not, let me know and I'm happy to answer any questions. Check out the "about" and FAQ at the bottom of the page. Also, this Primer Page was created specifically to help new users figure things out. Welcome to Hubski and if you have any other questions don't hesitate to PM me.
Found it on DeviantArt. From the artist: Map of the Internet - First of its kind on such a scale, this map aims for succesful compendation of The Internet to scale suitable for standartized online navigation. This project is still underway, new versions of this map will be available in ulterior months.
Due to the immense size of the Net, only a miniscule portion of it was chosen to represent it on the map. Otherwise, this map would be unreadable and probably undrawable in entire lifespan of average human being.
This poster includes one full map of the internet, 4 minimaps showcasing NSA surveillance, most used social networks, most used internet browser, and worldwide internet penetration, list of Alexa Top 500 websites, quick timeline of the Internet History, top software companies and much more!
P.S. if you are asking, misspelling of "bussiness ocean" is actually intended. One of the many inside jokes on the map.
By Jay Jason SimonsFirst version of the Map of the Internet. This is definitely not the final version, incredible amount of websites and software companies are not on the map and will be incorporated in later updates.
