Just so we have what this thread's about actually in the thread:
A new add-on from Mozilla makes them a whole lot more tangible. The tool, ominously called Collusion, is a free download for users of the Firefox browser. When you have it on, every time you visit a Web page, it records all the third-party trackers that glom onto you. There’s no great technical wizardry involved—anyone who knows how to navigate the developer settings on her browser can see the same data—but Collusion visualizes the information in a simple, alluring schematic. It’s a spider web of all the services that snare you online.
Seems pretty useful for those who don't know how to do it and those who are lazy (like me! :D).
Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

Personally I like making them look like spiderwebs, but I am working on making them look like a giraffe.
Please.
