The results show a clear overall trend: Blogs favor red (like VentureBeat), design sites favor gray, game sites favor green and the massive sites, like Google, Facebook and MySpace, favor blue. But the results aren’t uniform, and actually, if you average all the colors together in all the categories, you get a nearly uniform light gray color.
And the results might not be the best in the world, since Antrepo4 used Alexa, a generally bad measurement tool for site traffic, for the global, design and game site data. And it used Technorati, which also is hardly a good measuring tool, for site size (instead it measures incoming links), for the blogs.
Still, it’s a pretty interesting way to look at the web, which the site claims contains about 225,000,000 sites as of March 2009. The Antrepo Design Industry hopes to have posters for the results on its site soon.

Mexican artist Damián Ortega's masterful new installation at Galpão Fortes Vilaça takes its title, "Materialista," from the Spanish word describing a truck that transports construction materials. The truck parts themselves are Ortega's chosen medium for the piece, a play on the idea of materialism and deconstruction.
Totaling eight meters long, the Mexican artist hung steel parts from the ceiling to create the illusion of an actual truck. This constellation uses opposition and value to depict the image and make its point. Like his 2002 dismembered Volkswagen beetle, titled "Cosmic Thing," this time around Ortega achieved a similar feat on a grander scale with Materialista.
