One Million Favicons: Where's Ours?

You know how to play Where's Wally, but this time the name of the game is Where's My Website?

Nmap has taken the favicons, those little icons you see in your address bar, from the 288 945 most popular websites, as ranked by Alexa, and turned them into a giant poster.  The size of each icon is proportional to its estimated reach.

Here's what it looks like:



How many can you spot?

DigitalVersus is on the list

We're there too.  This week, Alexa has us ranked at 83, 254th place, well inside the threshold, so we're on the poster.  It'll take somebody pretty special to spot us at this distance, and we feel sorry for those of you whose eyes aren't (ahem) as young as others.   Look for the (very) little green ball with the white star.  If you can't spot it straight away, you can have two more attempts further down ...



Need a clue?  A former web giant is below us and to the left.  Can't see it?  OK, try again ...



Still can't spot it?  One last chance—you can't miss it this time ... 



Ah!  We're next door to Netscape.  That leaves us feeling all nostalgic ...

If you want to look up some of you other favourite sites, take a look at Nmap's site, or if you'd rather see the whole thing, then a version measuring 2048 x 3072 pixels is also available.
