The map of the Internet
Like any other map, The Internet map is a scheme displaying objects’ relative position; but unlike real maps (e.g. the map of the Earth) or virtual maps (e.g. the map of Mordor), the objects shown on it are not aligned on a surface. Mathematically speaking, The Internet map is a bi-dimensional presentation of links between websites on the Internet. Every site is a circle on the map, and its size is determined by website traffic, the larger the amount of traffic, the bigger the circle. Users’ switching between websites forms links, and the stronger the link, the closer the websites tend to arrange themselves to each other.
互联网地图
与任何其他地图一样，互联网地图是一种显示对象相对位置的方案；但与真实地图（例如地球地图）或虚拟地图（例如魔多地图）不同，显示在其上的对象并没有在表面上对齐。从数学上讲，互联网地图是互联网上网站之间链接的二维表示。每个站点在地图上都是一个圆圈，其大小由网站流量决定，流量越大，圆圈越大。用户在网站之间的切换形成了链接，链接越强，网站之间的排列就越紧密。
