Pretty awesome website that shows the visaul footprint a website has within the internet universe. Take a look and zoom out to see where we stand, Very simple computer program - but pretty awesome.

Looked up E11 and it is quite small relatively about ¼ size, but we won’t tell them as they have enough to b**** about. 8P
really?
This may have been the most rediculous waste of time of my life. Even considering the fact I've been totally over served tonight, I can't even rationalize the purpose of such a stupid site. I guess you got me, I was dumb enough to click on it.
I dunno. Its my
I dunno. Its my understanding that the size of the dot is proportional to the website traffic. Thus, you really see how small a chunk of the internet a site like this has compared to the supernova sized Google and Facebook urls. I thought it was pretty cool just for that sense of proportion. Plus, it was also interesting to see how large espn is.
Agree
I was probably too harsh in my comments, no offense to the OP, I just thought it was a bit over the top that a site, which essentially paints a pretty graph of the "size" of the site's popularity was "so cool." It is interesting to compare, but I guess it speaks to the complete insanity, that is the internet. So Facebook is popular, and so is google and ESPN, but mgoblog, and mgoblue are fractionally as popular......uh, yup, I could have guessed that.

Honestly, I'm kinda disappointed with the results here. With as many F5's that go around this site, I would have expected mgoblog to be on par with the googles of the internet world. Reality sucks. Still #1 in my heart!
Actually the way a visit is
Actually the way a visit is defined it doesn't matter how many times a user clicks F5 on the page since that would all be considered one visit as long as it happened within 30 minutes.
Though you're right it is disappointing if the metric we're interested in is page views.
Anyway you look at it mgoblog is a great place and has carved its own niche in the web.
Here's hoping for a bright future. This team does try hard and I will continue to support them.

I think a useful add would be something that let you compare multiple sites instead of only being able to compare sites located close to the one you're looking at.

I couldn't find a legend for the colors. Am I an idiot? If I'm an idiot, what did I idiotically overlook?
I compulsively downvote any usage of "lol".
I'm 95% sure color coding has
I'm 95% sure color coding has to do w/ the country the site is hosted in, but that's just from a bit of poking around.
EDIT: (From the 'About' page): "For the sake of convenience, all websites relative to a certain country carry the same color."

Very Interesting
This site definitely puts things in perspective for you, but I did find it intrguing that "mi.k12.us" is a planet of similar size in our local stellar neighborhood. I assume we're catching on in the schools then. Not too far to the south of us are "colts.com" and "voiceofsandiego.org". Perhaps a chance for colonization?
Good find, OP. I now realize that att.com is about to go nova and engulf my company's external site.
