Take a look at the amazing diagram below. It’s a 333-strong selection of the world’s top web sites portrayed on the Tokyo subway map layout.

Apparently this is the fourth version of the map though I hadn’t seen it before – wish I had.

As you’d expect, all the big boys are on there — Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Skype, StumbleUpon, WordPress, Reddit, IMDb…

There’s a lot of media there too including News Corp, BBC, The Guardian and so on.

It’s well worth spending time scrolling around looking at how sites are linked up together and who the key players are.

The taller the building, the more successful it’s deemed, while its width denotes how stable it is.
