Taking All of Google and Plotting it in One Image

waseem — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 00:14:01 +0000

Google is a behemoth. I took on the task of creating a diagram that represents Google and all of its Web sites, services and software. I ended up with a Google that consists of 43 components meshing and crossing nine different categories: search, productivity, advertising, publishing, Internet tools, software bundle, portal and social network. No work is perfect and Google is surely not going to freeze this image anytime soon, so I have included the diagram’s original source in png format for anyone to modify/edit. Feel free to email me back any modifications on waseem$$$sayegh.com (replace $$$ with @)
