This map contains incoming links to the network as well as outgoing links and therefore as a result of casting a wider net it gathers a much larger list of blogs and other sites than the original. The original consists of only incoming links to the original network list.

We can now see that the PAP has entered the map, pap.org.sg and youngpapblog.blogspot.com. So I think this is yet an even more refined and enhanced list of sites. I would however still refrain from saying that it is fully comprehensive. The problem with including outgoing links is that the map becomes overcrowded and unwieldly.

We can however see the central players clustered in the centre. Finally with nodes such as bbc.co.uk appearing in the map we can possibly assert that these are the sources of information that the group depends on.
