It's a great example of how social network analysis can help us make sense of the Internet industry.

In the print version [page 204] they show the partial ego-networks of the 4 'gatekeetpers': AOL-TW, AT&T, Microsoft, Yahoo. The ego-networks reveal some of the strategic alliances these 4 companies have formed. I combined the 4 ego nets and added other recent alliance data to create an internet industry network of some 50+ players. The network is displayed in an interactive Java applet. The URL is http://www.orgnet.com/netindustry.html A link to the on-line version of the Industry Standard article [no ego-net visuals] is also on that page.
