Geography of Online Communities

Vespa. The new S. Born to be square.

Map via XKDC (h/t: Charlotta Mellander). Thoughts?

    Clearly an old map–no Twitterverse! :D

    Facebook is a larger land now, and Ning probably needs to be here in somewhere. I’d also guess that Wikipedia is a lot larger.

    The “Bay of Angst” made me laugh.

    I’ve seen versions of this map, but never the compass. It makes more sense with it.

    Wikipedia has mutated quite a bit–I suspect the current web would look more distorted and interconnected with other websites as well.

    It’s XKCD, not XKDC. Randall Munroe is consistently brilliant with his web-comic.
