The Social Networking Map
The site Flowtown just published on its blog a cartographic representation of the social networks. The size of the territory is determined by the estimated amount of members of that network. Of course the biggest “country” is Facebook with its 500 declared users and is only second to the mighty “Empire of Google”.
It is very interesting (and funny) to see internet represented in such way. With quite unusual landmarks this map gives an ironic and somehow true insight of the online actuality. Among the best parts are the “Google’s Information Gathering Posts” disseminated all over the map, the “United Territories of Wikimedia”, the “Isles of Apps”, the “YouTube Triangle of Viral Videos”, the island of Adult Friendfinder lying in the “Sea of Desperation” and the “Former Kingdom of MySpace”.
