Map Of Online Communities


Now that online communities are becoming popular vehicles for political campaigns, perhaps a map would help some less technology inclined candidates navigate the Internet. MySpace, Facebook, SecondLife, Wikipedia and other sites are all accounted for. Note the "Gulf of YouTube" and "The Blogipelago."

The creator of the Strange Maps Blog believes the geography is not randomly assigned. Area and position are significant, thus each community’s geographic area represents its estimated size.

The drawing, originally posted at a Web site called xkcd, which is described as "a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language," is now being sold as a poster. Click here for a larger view of the map.

(Thanks to Ian at TIA for the heads up on this item.)
