Web Trend Map 2008 Beta
We present you with the 2008 Web Trend Map, in all its beautiful beta glory. This time we’ve taken almost 300 of the most influential and successful websites and pinned them down to the greater Tokyo-area train map. By popular demand, we enlarged the poster size from A3 to A0. We guarantee it will make a great addition to your home or office. 
Download It!
We’d like you to enjoy our hard work in a format that suits you best, so we offer the map in the following formats for you to download and enjoy:
- Big, A3 PDF
- Clickable online version
- 1600 x 1024 Wallpaper (to come soon)
- 1440 x 900 Wallpaper (to come soon)
- 1024 x 768 Wallpaper (to come soon)
In order to understand what it’s all about you might give it a closer look first.


Wow, that is very cool
Great work! I would love to order the A0 poster, where can I find the order form? Thanks!
Id like to order at poster. Pretty please with sugar on top
Put my name down for a poster please.
Looks really good, congratulations!
Yes, I’d like one too. Count me in.
Nice well done job ^^
One poster for me too thanks!
Cool map. I like this great idea.
Order, order, order. I want to order one. Please! Do you send it to Germany? Please.
Fantastic work! Put me in the list for a poster, thanx!
+1 for me too
Looks amazing. My only (whiny/picky) critique is that I sort of wish that “2008″ wasn’t printed. But I understand that the nature of the piece relies on connecting trends to a date.
You should do a version in Japanese. Great work!
I love the Trend Map, but I think that there’s too noise to signal. I would just let everybody know when its ready.
Fantastic work!Id like to order at poster.
I liked V1, I loved V2. V3 is a killer. Now you got me wondering about V4. How far can you go with this.
Ps: Mario: Shut up.
Would love to get my hands on one! It’s beautiful, great work!
Nice work! Put me on the list for an A0 copy. thx.
I’d like to have one A0. Hope you’ll be shipping in Russia.
Nicely done. The folks at eBay’s Toys building have an enormous (about 4′ x 8′) copy of last year’s map up in their space. We’re jealous! Not certain that this comment is the right place to do it, but put us down for an order too.
I would love a printed copy.
Great work. Put me down for an A0 too.
Where is Ars Technica?
Would you reserve a copy for me? Hope you’ll be shipping in Russia.
Sorry fot posting twice. Your server keeps showing 503
I’d like to order a poster too.
Sorry for the slow server. We are under massive attack. We’ll upgrade the server on Monday to match the demand. (Also, for once, I’ll be absent over the weekend as I am taking a birthday Onsen break).
Have a nice weekend
Oliver
I must thank Seth A.from B12 Solipsism for having added a link to your fantabulastic site. As a former architech/urban planner, I thoroughly enjoyed your concept of the blogosphere map, especially th eone with Snapshot links. Tres kewl. I will follow your adventures.
Why isn’t Facebook counted as a Social Network?
I want to order one, A0. Question is: Will you ship it to switzerland? Shipping-Costs? Thanx!

Beautiful. Count me in for another A0!
Waouh! I am sure willing to get a A0 poster !!! Pls count me in :-))

Why I can’t download the PDF version file?
And I’m fan of this maps =)
So long as you ship to Australia (I’m the 3rd.) - You’ve got my lazy 50 peso.. er.. $50USD - Its so easy to confuse them these days!
That’s be a A1 tube. My god - that’s huge!
I’d like the A0 poster. Thank you!
Sweet! Thank you!!
Thank you for 3!
I got several copies of the 2007 poster, kept one and gave the rest as gifts. There’s no way I’ll miss the 2008 edition! Add me to the list!
Hi, i would really like to order the AO poster, how can i get an order form? Thanks
Please can i order the AO poster. Thanks
We will definitely be linking to this. It the most original thing for quite some time. Keep up the good work.
In the clickable version, the link to “Studiverzeichnis” should be http://www.studivz.net - you left out the “e” in “net”. Besides that, a wonderful resource!
Amazing! Put me down for one too please. I’m in London so if you could work out postage costs to the UK that would be brilliant. How do I print an A3/A4 version in the meantime though?? My desk needs brightening up!
Peas
Congrats! I cant’ wait to replace the 2007 map (table mat format) with the new one. Why am I not allowed to print the PDF?
Cos it’s beta? Cheers!
I want see clearly
Congrats! I’m looking forward to replace the 2007 map (table mat format) with the new one
I can’t print the PDF
Is this because it’s beta?
Poster, por favor! Put me on the list. Great interpretation.
hello,
I would like to order a poster if it is still available
m
Its fabuous guys. Please put me down for one.

What do the symbols mean?
Cool map. Great job!
Put my name down for a poster, thanks!
Hello Japan, you do a fantastic job. ONE A0 poster please. 55 USD incl. shipping, right?
Nice work!
P.S. Link to Google Calendar is incorrect. It should be http://calendar.google.com instead of http://www.google.comcalendar.com
Cheers!
Err..link to Google Analytics also seems to be incorrect - http://www.http//www.google.com/analytics/ - an extra http:// has been added.
hello i would like to order this poster let me know when its available
You’ve got bloglog on there twice. Once in the middle and once on the top.
Good Morning, That is very cool I would love to order the Ao poster, where can I find the order form ? Thanks Andrea
Put me down for one of those beautiful A0 posters, can’t wait to stick that on my wall.
Is the map format suppose to represent connections between the sites, or just to make it look cool? Because I don’t think there’s a lot relating Huffington Post and TorrentSpy…
The key says that Opera is on the money line (???) but it’s on the Technology Line on the map (by Adobe).
what an interesting idea. thank seth godin for constantly pointing us in interesting directions
Hi, Cool. How can I order a poster?
Great work you done!
I’d like to order one!
Definitely gotta have one!!!
Excellent design and agree with the choices with some of my all time favourite sites listed. Just downloaded the A3 version and it will be on my wall soon.
http://livejournal.com really should be in there.
@David: The keys are all still totally random. We wait with that until we have the definite setup, because changes with the key are very work intense.
Well what do you know, it IS a series of tubes.
Hey guys - ingenious stuff. One suggestion - you have wikipedia listed (as wikipedia.com, .org would be preferable) and on the PDF version it’s not listed in the lower index. Unless I’m missing something?
Thanks!
I would like a printed copy.
I would like a printed copy.
;( can’t print the A3 version. Permission denied.
could you make a wallpaper in 1920×1200, too? plz
greetz
Hello,
I would be interested in (1) A0 Poster.
Thank you!
Peter
I’ll taken an A0 thanks.
hit me with one of those sexy posters please
Great project! But: It is not possible to print the PDF !?
Very nice and clean work. I want to order one to Spain. How can i?
thx
Great work. I’m a little confused by the exclusion of PHP from the technology line though.
Beautiful work once again. Put me down for an order of the poster.
Oh, but I’d love one as well! Please let there be one left for shipment to Copenhagen, Denmark
Is there a way to be notified by email of the disponibility of the A0 poster?
How does one go about purchasing a poster….or are they all sold out? Because I definitely want one.
@Pierre: To stay in touch and get informed when the poster is ready, sign up for our newsletter. Right now we will have to wait what happens with the Yahoo-Microsoft deal before we print anything.
@Everyone that wants to print the poster: Until it’s done we’d rather not have you print this. I know it’s obnoxious to prevent people from printing, but the key on the bottom is still exemplary and there are too many mistakes on the map.
I’d also like to order the A0 poster too!
Please reserve one A0 print for me please.
I would like to order a poster thanks
does the pdf-version no longer exist for download? i have trouble downloading it and the link: “closer look first” doesn’ work either.
I would also like to order one!
Definitely would love one, please……

This is my favorite art form, have things methodically laid out and layers. Many things to look at on one image. Great Work!
An other nice hard job and great map ! Thanks ! I wrote about your Web Trend Maps 2008 here, and i hope the final version.
Hello,
Great work as usual. I’d like to order the A0 poster as well.
I have to say tho - it’s indeed obnoxious to prevent the printing. This is internet I’ll have the “non-complete” version on my hard drive (and thousands of other ones) anyway… tsk tsk:)
I like the idea of the map, just found my station (Kita-Kogane) on the Joban line and it’s Torrentz. Cool
I would like to order a copy of this beautiful creation.
Can we pick one up in Tokyo?
Thank you for that great work. I would like one A0 poster, if it is not too late.
Let me know when the poster is out. Looks great
That looks great… thanks a lot
vere good nice
Hello, i would like to order A0 poster. Cheers!
You could also put Tangler in. It’s a discussion technology that is networked.
Plus you can embed it in Wordpress and you can embed Youtube into it.
http://www.tangler.com
Nice job. But I think cyworld, Naver and Oh My News are Korean companies, no? I noticed that they are on the Chinese Line.
Im interested in one of these posters, too. But try to drop the price plz!
my compliments for pursuing this vein. lovely and invaluable, very well done.
What´s the password to print the A3 format?
I wan tone too - BIG poster please. I enjoy the online version a lot.
I am interested in purchasing one of the “web trends” maps. Please let me know if it is still possible to do so. And how I should deal with the money transfer.
Sorry bout this please send money transfer information to this email address
Very nice, this is a gate of fiture….
Really fanatic stuff guys, all really seems to make sense!
Hi
I downloaded the A3 PDf above, but it does not allow me to print it. Can you please help?
Thanks Jamaal
I order one. Wonderful job!
Forgot to mention the size: A0!
Err, it’s “The Onion”, not “TheOnion”.
I’m also confuse bye the omission of PHP on the technology line, is the must used programming language out there, i don’t get it.
This is awesome.
Put me down for one order!!!
I want to order the giant map, please. This is fabulous.
Paula

Please can you put me down for a poster
Thank you
Ged
Excellent work. I would like to congratulate you for this.
I will test tomorrow the online clickable version, as I have only had a look over the pdf.
Once again, congrats!
J.Mihai http://forums.ukwebmasterworld.com/webmaster-marketplace/
Please can I order a copy of the A) version in advance.
Many thanks.
Fantastic. Excellent example of good content and smart way of devepoping even a form of visual art from it.
Yes please, put me down for A0. Can’t wait to see the final version in full size, framed on the wall.
Yes please, +1 for an Ao poster.
Cheers,
Andy.
On the clickable map, linux (M-9) goes to linux.org, which actually complains that you should be going to their “proper” site http://www.linux.org instead.
Maybe they should just set up a CNAME reference instead??
Hi,
the map is such a great job. People really love it in our office. But in our point of view the big B2C E-Commerce retailers are not listed. We (The OTTO Group) for example are behind Amazon the second biggest retailer wordlwide with a 6 billion $ sales volume (only online!). Would be great if we can find this name on the map. For further informations just visit http://www.ottogroup.com.
besides, well done! Alex
Great - Congratulations!
I’d like to order one please.
Curious about the A0 too, so put me down for one plz
I’d like order an A0 poster. thanks
Would love to have the A0 poster in my office and would therefore like to order one. Pls let me know how you want to handle payments. Thanks & regards - Alexander

I miss one of the most important lines of today: the Mobile Line. Or is that an airline ;), so another map will be needed (with hubs and spokes, etc. ) ?
Hey, I wanna order one A0 poster please! Drop me the details!
Id like to order a poster, too. Pls put me on the list.
Thanks!
Lars
Can we get the older versions as well? I would like to see them in comparison.
Super as always! I had been looking forward to it.
I think you guys could definitely beef up the Video Line. There are so many significant new things out there this year: Hulu.com, Fancast.com
I’d like to have one of your A0 posters for 2008. Please advise how to order.
Many thanks a
Yep, please put me in the list for one or more of your posters.
