The clever chaps over at Nmap.org have found a way to use their own bespoke Nmap Security Scanner and its scripting engine, along with freely available Alexa Traffic data to scan the Top Million ranking websites in the world, fetch the favicons from each of them and then try to display them in a cloud map type view.... oh so clever!

What ended up happening was... 328,427 unique icons were collected, of which 288,945 were proper images. The remaining 39,482 were error strings and other non-image files. They then took all those icons and produced this interactive map visualization below, allowing users to search for a website and drag, pan and zoom to view those smaller brands with less traffic.

I wonder if Bluegrass is hidden in there... HOORAY we are - click here! Can you see us??
