The Icons of the Web sized by Traffic

Security company Nmap, decided to toy with one of their scripts which pulls back favicons from websites and turn it into a map of all the icons it found in the top million. Surprisingly, only about 328k were found. What was more interesting was how they arrange it into a huge image with the size of each site’s icon drawn proportional to its traffic.
