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.

1.25.2008
22:47
+1 for me too
1.26.2008
00:18
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!
1.26.2008
00:21
I love the Trend Map, but I think that there’s too noise to signal. I would just let everybody know when its ready.
1.26.2008
00:39
Fantastic work!Id like to order at poster.
1.26.2008
00:56
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.
1.26.2008
01:16
Would love to get my hands on one! It’s beautiful, great work!
1.26.2008

1.26.2008
05:10
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.
1.26.2008
05:52
I would love a printed copy.
1.26.2008

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

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.

1.31.2008
20:47
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!
1.31.2008

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!

2.1.2008
20:59
We will definitely be linking to this. It the most original thing for quite some time. Keep up the good work.
2.1.2008
21:06
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!
2.1.2008
21:29
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!

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?

I want see clearly
2.1.2008
23:26
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?
2.2.2008

Hello Japan, you do a fantastic job. ONE A0 poster please. 55 USD incl. shipping, right?
2.2.2008
16:57
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!
2.2.2008
16:58
Err..link to Google Analytics also seems to be incorrect - http://www.http//www.google.com/analytics/ - an extra http:// has been added.
2.2.2008

hello i would like to order this poster let me know when its available
2.2.2008

You’ve got bloglog on there twice. Once in the middle and once on the top.
2.2.2008
21:40
Good Morning, That is very cool I would love to order the Ao poster, where can I find the order form ? Thanks Andrea
2.2.2008
21:46
Put me down for one of those beautiful A0 posters, can’t wait to stick that on my wall.
2.2.2008
22:17
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…
2.2.2008
22:42
The key says that Opera is on the money line (???) but it’s on the Technology Line on the map (by Adobe).
2.3.2008
00:51
what an interesting idea. thank seth godin for constantly pointing us in interesting directions
2.3.2008

Hi, Cool. How can I order a poster?

2.3.2008

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.
2.3.2008
12:51
http://livejournal.com really should be in there.
2.3.2008
12:51
@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.
2.3.2008
13:13
Well what do you know, it IS a series of tubes.
2.3.2008
13:28
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!
2.3.2008
17:47
I would like a printed copy.

2.5.2008

Great work. I’m a little confused by the exclusion of PHP from the technology line though.
2.5.2008
03:20
Beautiful work once again. Put me down for an order of the poster.
2.5.2008
03:31
Oh, but I’d love one as well! Please let there be one left for shipment to Copenhagen, Denmark
2.5.2008
04:39
Is there a way to be notified by email of the disponibility of the A0 poster?
2.5.2008
06:54
How does one go about purchasing a poster….or are they all sold out? Because I definitely want one.
2.5.2008
06:55
@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.
2.5.2008
10:35
I’d also like to order the A0 poster too!
2.5.2008

Please reserve one A0 print for me please.

2.8.2008

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:)
2.8.2008
19:11
I like the idea of the map, just found my station (Kita-Kogane) on the Joban line and it’s Torrentz. Cool

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.

Nice job. But I think cyworld, Naver and Oh My News are Korean companies, no? I noticed that they are on the Chinese Line.
2.10.2008

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

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. ) ?

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
