Subject: Poster of "Map of the Internet"

I don't have any connection to 3Design, but I thought this poster
they are producing for sale of a map of the internet based on
"the Skitter Graph created by CAIDA and the San Diego
Supercomputer Center" looks pretty interesting. I agree with them
that it's a significant "snapshot" of human history, but I
wouldn't put it up there with the "Earthrise" picture (IMHO, only
the building of the Pyramids compares to that!) But it is
probably worth a look if you collect these things. See
http://www.3dce.com/internetmap/ for details.
