Map of the Internet

Perhaps Micras is off to the east somewhere. Although we're probably too small to even be visible on that scale.

Nice map. But it doesn't include micronationalism. Ergo, I retract my former statement.

Micronations? A big piece of the Internet? Wikipedia, which is on there as a smallish islet, has four million people. BoingBoing's so small as to be almost invisble and they get two million visitors a month.

All the MCS countries plus all the GSO countries combined, discounting Lovely's inflated figures, probably have less than a thousand people.

The blogs are down in the southwest.

And no, I don't have StumbleUpon. I used to use it but never got anything too good.
