The Cartography of the Social Networking World
a Paste Magazine blog post by Beca Grimm
If you guessed Facebook appears as the largest landmass, you’d be right.
On his website, cartographer/cartoonist Randall Munroe said of his map, “This updated map uses uses size to represent total social activity in a community — that is, how much talking, playing, sharing or other socializing happens there.”
The latest rendering is an update from his 2007 edition.
The drawing’s information comes from data collected over spring and summer of 2010.
You can pre-order a poster of the image here. Munroe said he hopes to have all of them printed and ready to ship by Oct. 18.
[Dear Reader/Artist/Fan, If you are not using social networking to your easy benefit, you are missing out. The world of the social networking is growing fast! Just look at Munroe’s 2007 version to see how much it has evolved! Be encouraged to spread the word about the music you have worked hard to make and the music you love because the world is just waiting to hear from you.To read more posts from TMG's Radio Girl, visit her blog here: http://tmgradiogirl.tumblr.com
