You remember that map of the internet that xkcd did a while back — the ip4 address space one, not the social networking one? Well, someone’s extended the idea with a full map of every ip4 address, and who owns it. The implementation is still lacking a little polish, but it’s a great idea and it already makes for pretty interesting viewing.
Utter genius.
Linked from Cephalopodcast. Oh, and don’t follow that link if human/octopus hybrid action figures are the sort of thing that might upset you.
I really not sure what to make of this. It’s Peanuts (yeah, you know, with Charlie Brown and Snoopy,) re-imagined as a sort-of bleak, postmodern comment on purpose, youth, identity and relationships. Or maybe as a parody of those things. I’m not sure, but I think it’s art.
