Just found out that LinkedIn has a tool to vizualize network connections.
My map. Deficiency: manual adjustments are not supported. I'd like to explode contacts.

The bigger amount of people connected + the more jobs you had, the more good looking map became. E.g.,

word cloud with styles

I am all about typographic map, inspired by Washington DC , World map, and UAE  I have even made several attempts to create some. It is the first step that is troublesome. Fortuitously, there is a Tagxedo . It turns words - famous speeches, news articles, slogans and themes, even your love letters - into a visually stunning word cloud, words individually sized appropriately to highlight the frequencies of occurrence within the body of text  with very user-friendly interface, many  different colors and themes, fonts  and really quick processing.  Idea of making map flashed into my mind. Firstly, I found the map with shape of Ukraine boundaries

and then decided to make a research - to compare result on  different search engines and visualize the 'view' Ukraine in the web. Here are my results:

#1 - Google

#2 - Bing

#3 - Wikipedia

 #4 - Yahoo

#5 - Answers.com

#6 - Ask.com

It doesn't work with  Ukrainian/Russian encoding, therefore there is neither popular ukrainian nor russian web searcher in the blogpost.
Enjoy Tagxedo!

P.S. Does anybody know what is 'The SitePK'?
