Interactive Icon Infographic of the 300,000 Most Popular Websites



NMap.org created an infographic that shows the 300,000 most popular websites in the world, represented by their icons, in relative size to each other:

The area of each icon is proportional to the sum of the reach of all sites using that icon. When both a bare domain name and its "www." counterpart used the same icon, only one of them was counted. The smallest icons--those corresponding to sites with approximately 0.0001% reach--are scaled to 16x16 pixels. The largest icon (Google) is 11,936 x 11,936 pixels, and the whole diagram is 37,440 x 37,440. Since your web browser would choke on that, we have created the interactive viewer below (click and drag to pan, double-click to zoom, or type in a site name to go right to it).


It has a search function, and Neatorama's big N icon is in there.

I entered "http://www.neatorama.com/" and some variations into the search field, and searching confirmed the site is online, but not in the infographic. If a particular search term works, can someone please post it here?

Thanks for your help in advance!
